My friend's maxima's passenger door won't open!! Anyone ever have this problem. I'm thinking something inside the door came loose but not sure. I'm gonna check it out tomorrow. It's gonna be kinda hard to take the door panel off without the door being able to open. Well, if anyone got suggestions, let me know. Thanks

I had the same problem with my car last winter. I took it to the dealer who had to replace the internal locking junk which cost me like $400. yea you got to take off the entire door.

I think your friend has same problem as on my 92 GXE. It has been like this for several months, dealer wanted 2 hours labor to diagnose! so I've been living with it. Door lock seems to release, keys don't help, just won't open. If you find a solution please let me know

The door lock assembly sometimes will get jammed up, and won't release. To fix it, a mechanic will use a long screw driver to reach down between the glass and the door and break the lock assembly, which releases the door. You will then have to have your lock assembly replaced.
