Power Door Locks????

My driver side door lock sticks and won't lock the door, it almost closes and locks but it gets stuck. The passenger side works, its just the driver side. Any ideas?? Thanks!!

This is a common problem. You will need to pull the door panel & lube the lock mechanism near the door latch - spray lube works good.

There are three torx head screws that hold the arm rest to the door. One up at the top - easy to see - and two under the arm rest, that go in to the door at an angle. Use a flash light to inspect the screw head - I've seen some metric hex head screws at the bottom locations, as well.
