So I'm in a jam. My driver's side door is stuck closed. Neither the inside or outside handle will disengage the latch. The lock works fine, so that's not the problem. The issue is with the door stick shut my mechanic can't figure out how to get the interior door panel off to access the door mechanism. There are screws all along the bottom of the door panel for starters. He's tried slim jimming the door with no luck.
Anyone have any suggestions? I don't want to have him cut the panel off because replacements are almost impossible to obtain. I would be most grateful for any advice.
