Hi, I've been experiencing what I believe to be vapor lock when the car is hot and only on the hottest summer days. After parking and trying to restart after about 30 minutes, the motor tries to fire but barely runs and stumbles, almost like the timing has jumped. Lots of misfires. I've...

Basically you open the door from the outside. You let go to the handle, the lock will drop down, causing it to lock. Not like a free fall, like being push down in normal use. No, this will not do this with the inside handle, only the outside. This is all happening only on the passenger side...

So I have a 1997 explorer XLT and lately when i hit the lock button every door locks but the fron drivers door. Also, sometimes it stays locked and can only be opened from the inside. What do you guys think the problem is, how would i fix it, and how expensive would it be to fix.

So one day I decided to use my truck key instead of the clicker and the key would not turn. The key works on the passenger side and for starting the truck, but as for the drivers side and the back hatch, it will not turn. I'm not sure why this is so.. The '99 explorer i had before had this...
