This weekend i washed and detailed my Titan since the weather was in the high 40's low 50's. So today i go out to my car at 5AM to head to work and the rear passenger side door won't open. Now, the temperature had dropped into low teens overnight so i thought maybe it was frozen to the door frame. However, the handle pulls out and the lock unlocks and works with the remote, but the door will not budge.
My only guess was somehow the internal locking actuator must have frozen or something. When i got to work after my 45 min. drive (and the truck was all warmed up) the rear door opened just fine, so i thought that was probably what happened...or so i thought.
Well later in the day it did it again. I was able to get the door to open but then it wouldn't latch shut. I'd slam it but the lock acuator wouldn't catch. After 4-5 tries i got it to shut, but now i'm worried it might be something more than the cold weather.
Any ideas? :huh: I'm gonna try to used liquid wrench on the lock mechanism later tonight, hopefully that won't freeze too.
