I have a 1996 dodge dakota and have a problem with the passenger door not opening.
My coworker and i got the door open by disassembling the door panel and he was able to get the door unstuck. This worked for about 2 months -then door will not open.
Help - what can i try/replace?

Thanks

 

I would look at the door latch/lock assembly. Has anyone lubed this lately?

 

I have the same problem...so far my drivers side is fine but the passengers is stuck. I will work on it this weekend but i think most of the problem is lubrication.

 

Hose that puppy down with WD-40 and let it sit for a few hours. Make sure you hit the door frame as much as you can and the hinges, if you can get to them. Do the same the lock/latch. After it opens, put a SMALL amount of graphite in the lock. A little goes a long way, and keep it off of your clothes. If you STILL have problems, check the screws/bolts holding the door to the door frame (by the hinges)

 

Is it only from the outside or both the inside and outside?
