Description of the problem	I estimated mileage and dates because it seems that after our first winter with the vehicle we began to have issues with the doors in cold weather. I live in nashville, tn so it's not like we have ferocious winters. At that point, my kids were 3 and 1 and obviously still needed to be in carseats. There were times i had to climb through the front seats with each of them because i could not get the doors open for anything. I know this is a widespread problem as i have been researching it for years. Many home remedies i would see had raised concerns with others because of the potential to corrode the gasket. So, what i have found to work, is not good for everyone, but it does work. With my gloves on and my hand stretched flat, i bang the crap out of the top of the door at a 45 degree angle. At times, it has left me bruised at the heel of my hand, but i am able to get the door open and allow my children who are now 8 and 5, to enter and exit the vehicle properly. I would think the school would frown on them climbing out the front door in the car rider line in the mornings. :)
