| Description of the problem | Door locks frozen - can't secure driver's door while driving... It's 24 degrees this morning. Dry, no rain. I hit the fob to open the driver's door. It opens. I hop in the truck. I start the motor. The rectangular warning screen appears. "driver's door ajar", or something like that. I attempt to close the door again. It will not secure. I checked to make sure nothing is caught in the jam. Looks good. Door will not secure. So, i had to drive the truck with my right hand across my lap to hold the door closed. Once at my destination, i hopped out and attempted to close the door. It just bounces and will not secure. Well, i hit the fob to lock it and low and behold, it locks. The truck is now locked and secure, but it won't unlock. I can't get in it. I guess it is now frozen in the locked position. I'm stranded. |
