I have 1998 Ford Explorer and I noticed trying to unlock the door automatically that it would stick sometimes. Sometimes becale always and noticed the passenger door never would unlock. Then one day parked I tried to open passenger door and it wouldnt open. I had to open it from the inside. Now it wont open from the inside. The door is totally non functional. Door latch issue I dont know but have read many complaints of the same. Also driver door lock will sometimes stick, the door open but when closing it it never wants to shut all the way the first time or the 2nd it takes a few times to get the door to completely close but the passenger door is a loss no one can ride in it. Seen many other complaints of the same problem Ford should have to fix this issue they know about
