Hey, I'm having some issues with my driver side lock. First, on occasion, the lock post will not go down. It is like something is catching that shouldn't in the door. I have to slam the door then reopen it or just whack the door panel to get it free to push it down.
Second, the key does nothing in the lock. Rather than not turning, the tumbler turns freely. I can feel that it is clearly not engaging anything. I have had the door panel off, but cannot see anything near the lock and door catch (i need to get one of those dentist's mirrors)
So, has anyone experienced this or know what could be the culprit? Thanks a lot. It is seriously getting on my nerves.
