Problem overview

Some Chevrolet City Express owners report experiencing issues with the back driver side door getting stuck in the locked position despite replacing the latch. These problems may arise from using low-quality replacement parts, which can lead to malfunctions and recurring issues. Additionally, incorrect installation or misalignment of the door mechanism can contribute to the door's failure to unlock properly. Some owners have found that adjusting the striker slightly can help, while others recommend lubricating the latch with lithium grease to ensure it catches correctly. In some cases, removing the door panel to inspect internal components may be necessary to identify underlying issues. If these steps do not resolve the problem, seeking assistance from a professional mechanic experienced with Chevrolet City Express door mechanisms may be essential for a thorough diagnosis and solution.
