This sounds like a very common problem now that I am reading all this online.. My driver side door is stuck closed.. Its locking and unlocking from what i can see.. my brother is trying to use a window wedge and a slim jim tomorrow.. hopefully we can pull up th elock mechanism manually but just in case we cant can some one give me some ideas?

It all depends on what, who or where the mechanism is broken, come apart or seized? All I can say is not to loose your patients and keep fiddling with it using the slim jim? I’ve had to go as far as removing the interior trim panel, to get to the latch, with the door still closed. That usually means some damage to the trim panel. This is one of those types of jobs, where it’s kind of like search and rescue; you keep going until you get to where you want to be. This is not a great diagram but maybe of some help? Dan.

Before you drill anymore holes; maybe think about taking the car into your local repair facility? Sorry but what else can I do or suggest; sitting here at a key board? Dan. oops forgot to log in.

They were rude to me on the phone.. I have now called Honda USA they said there isn't anything they can do.. I just feel like if there are so many problems with this same repetitive issue... why wouldnt there be a better solution.. Im sorry if I sound ruthless about this.. I have been sick for almost a month.. I just wanna be able to get to work and Im a bigger woman.. its a little difficult to climb across seats...   Email This Post   Automotive Repair     Auto Body Repair and Refinishing     Heating or AC Issues     Electrical and Wiring     Brake Systems     Car Stereo Repair Advice     General Discussions     Car Making Funny Noises     Engine Fault Codes     Engine Troubles     Exhaust Systems     Steering and Suspension     Transmission Troubles     Tricks of the Trade Automotive World     General Discussions     Antique Car Talk     Car Shows and Events     The Bargin Bin     Motor Vehicle Inspection     Car Care Tips     Traffic Tickets     Gasoline, Motor Oils, Concept Cars and Engines     Auto Insurance, Financing, Leases, Warranties Truck Repair     General Discussions     Truck Engine Repair     Truck Suspension Repair Motorcycle Repair     General Discussions     Motorcycle Engine Repair CarJunky     Open Posting     Board FAQ's     New Board Suggestions
