...ANOTHER problem with my beloved pathy... Went skiing today (was only about -1) and after we walk back to the truck, i unlock the doors, Pull on the handle and get in. I go to shut my door and it just thuds against the latch and won't close. I can move the latch fine with my fingers, just something is wrong and it will not latch shut. Ended up driving home (2 hours) in the snow holding my door shut AND trying to drive, operate the wipers, signals etc with the other hand. (wasn't fun if you are curious) I get home, park it in the garage and give it time to unfreeze and same problem. Any ideas?
EDIT: just went to get in, same thing happened except the pin is still intact, door is frozen open and i cannot move the latch to fix it until it defrosts. Last night i used penetrating oil, sylicone grease etc on it. I guess it didn't work. Any ideas from here?
