Just recently i'm having problems unlocking my passenger door lock when using the key.After inserting the key it does not want to turn unless I first pull on the door handle.I have lubed the door mechanism which closes to the pillar striker and have used graphite in the lock cylinder.Anyone else have this problem?

 

dam, my driverside door does the same thing thought it was frozen at first but it still does it from time to time . I try to slide it in slow LOL that way doesnt get hung up
I just live with it!!!

 

try a different key

don't know why, but I had an old F-150 do the same thing. problem only existed on one key, but never did it with the other key.

took the good key and got a good copy made, then the problem never came back.




hope it's that easy

 

I tried my spare key,which has never been used,and it seems worse!

 

I didnt even know passenger side doors had key holes on these trucks. Mine doesnt.
