Default Door Latches
Took care of mine today. Removed and took apart followed by cleaning with WD-40 W Electrical Contact Cleaner and 1000 grit silicone carbide sandpaper. Applied a thin layer of Dielectric Grease, reassembled and installed. No more hesitation,works like when they were new. Took 45 minutes and cost next to nothing...

Did both of mine last summer. One was much better, the other not so much. Installed a new one and my passenger is much happier!!
