lock ripped out?
So I walked out to my car today and on the passenger side the lock was haning out of the door? didn't look like it was forced out but could it really just fall out of the door? or could it have been a possible break in attempt?

Only a clip (#5) and rod hold the lock in place.

Its just held in by one spring clip, if that came off the lock would be able to fall at least partially out.
If there aren't any pry marks or scratches around the lock, it probably wasn't a break in attempt.

Re: lock ripped out?
doesnt sound easy, is there a thread on how to do this? or at least removing the door panel?

Re: lock ripped out?
While the door panel is off, you should go through the "door rattles" thread and make corrections to that side:
