What to Do When the Right Rear Door Cannot Be Opened from Inside or Outside?

[VanBella]

The child lock button is usually located on the side of the rear door, with two lock icons next to it. Move the switch to the unlock position to deactivate the child lock. If the door still cannot be opened from the inside after deactivating the child lock, it may indicate a malfunction in the door lock mechanism. Inspect and repair as needed.

I've been driving for over 20 years and seen this kind of thing often. If the right rear door won't open, first try pushing the door panel from the inside gently - don't use brute force, it might just be slightly stuck. The most common cause is the child lock being activated; this safety feature prevents kids from opening doors while driving, so check the small switch on the door edge and turn it off. If that's not it, the door handle or cable might be loose - try gently wiggling the handle to see if it resets. For power doors, restart the car engine and press the unlock button again. If you still can't fix it, don't force it to avoid damage - take it to a repair shop where mechanics can inspect the locking system with proper tools. Regular door lubrication and periodic checks can prevent such issues.
