If your door refuses either to lock/unlock or open, the mechanism is likely jammed. Not unlocking/locking could be linked to the electric switch used in most modern cars today, a blown fuse, or faulty wiring. It could also be that the mechanical linkage connecting the handles to the latch is broken or jammed.

Common reasons for this to happen:

  • One of the plastic clips broke and the rod fell off
  • Door kicker or relay has gone bad
  • Door lock cylinder is damaged

What to expect:

A top-rated mobile mechanic will come to your home or office to determine the source and cause of the door lock issue, and will then provide a detailed inspection report that includes the scope and cost of the necessary repairs.

How important is this service?

Without either the security provided by doors that lock or the convenience of doors that open, the car isn’t much use to anyone. Book a mechanic for a thorough inspection as soon as possible.

Fast and easy service at your home or office

Pontiac Grand Prix V6-3.8L - Door does not lock or open - Surprise, Arizona
I was really pleased with Peter's performance, he was professional, on time, quick to get the job done, yet took the time to explain what was going on with my car and what needed to be done to fix each problem. I look forward to having Peter work on my car in the future, and have full confidence in him.
