So, my driver side door lock only unlocks half the time. A couple of times the actual handle itself hasn't worked. Along with the back passenger door. That handle is shot. I have to open it from the inside handle. Then, recently my hatch has not been unlocking.

Is this easy to fix? I can give more details later if anyone can help. And I need it in girl terms! haha

Welcome to this forum! You have to remove the interior panel to get to the latches. They might have worn retaining clips or just need to be greased. The auto parts stores sell those clips in a section called Help! They usually have a red cardboard background. The company's name is WWW.DormanProducts.Com. Motormite is another package which they might be in.

Boys are Girls with more parts and less upkeep.:D
I agree with brooklyn, it's probably just parts that need to be greased or replaced. It is a 10 year old piece of plastic.
 






Does the package just have a clip for one door? Or do they sell it with 4? And does the hatch just have a panel that comes off too?
 






Boys are Girls with more parts and less upkeep. Nice. I didn't really want to write the girl thing. Like I am inferior or something, but a friend of mine on here said I should. Thinking maybe more guys would answer my question!
