And there's this humming noise on the passenger side when you try to unlock it. It last for about 3 seconds, then if you lock it and unlock it again the noise is there for about 1 second, and then it doesn't make any sound the next time. Anyone have any idea what it could be before I tear apart the door to find out.

I duno, maybe a stuck actuator? Just guessing though
 






You need a new door latch assembly. The spring inside the assembly is broken that holds up a lever. I had this happen to my driver side door. You can get a replacement from the dealer for around 50 bucks.
 






$50? #### that. I'll just keep reacing over and opening the door then lol.
 






Then you dont want to know how much it is to install it then i guess. LOL
Ford wanted $150 to install it.

I told them to go @#$@ themselves and did it my self. Took about 30 miniutes.
