Rear passenger door won't open 2008 Pathy

Postby 4Lo » Wed Jan 04, 2012 10:05 pm

Hi there first post for me here on the forum. I recently bought a 2008 Pathfinder LE. I love it but I recently experienced my first problem with it.

My passenger rear door will not open from the inside or the outside. The lock inside will not unlock either. What can I do to get the door open and why is the door stuck closed to begin with??

Thanks.

On my 05 there is a panel that can be removed with screws on it. Once removed, you can manually pull the latch. I would check to see what has become disconnected.

I have yet to take the door apart on my pathfinder, but I don't think the technology has changed. Most of the time, the handle is connected to a steel rod by a plastic clip. Either the clip has come off or has broken. Very easy fix.

Has there been any update to this?
Were you able to fix the issue? I have the same problem that occured yesterday and trying to get the door open so that I can check the handles and locks.
