Subject: 2001 Kia Sephia Door Locks IP: Logged
Message: After locking the keys in the car, my wife had AAA jimmy the lock open (on the driver's side). Immediately, the electric window mechanism seemed to be off track when the window reaches the lower couple of inches. A week later, she was unable to unlock the driver side door either remotely or manually. Question 1: is it possible to remove the plastic door cover while the door is shut? Question 2: If I can remove the door cover can I correct the problem my self, or do I need to take it to the DEALER?

Message: Argg! They always go for the driver's door where all the "stuff" is! If that ever happens in the future have them mess with a passenger door.
It probably needs to be opened again to get the panel off and fix what ever wiring and stuff that got bent with the first try. I would let a good auto body shop help you if you can't get the panel off. The less you break the better. That body shop may be at the dealer or independant - couldn't guess at that. Good luck, Tom Greenleaf
