The rear side door of the Dodge Journey is known for experiencing issues where it may not open properly, whether using the manual or remote controls. This problem is common in 2008-2010 models and typically requires replacing the lock actuator. Other components that may be affected include the driver's control panel and the wiring connecting the trunk to the rear doors. If the lock motor fails, the handle connection breaks, or the arms become disconnected or bent, these parts can also impact functionality. Replacing the rear door lock actuator in a Dodge Journey typically costs between $230 and $250, with the expenses evenly split between parts and labor.
My driver's side door is completely stuck shut, even though the locks and windows are functioning normally. How can I open the door to remove the panel and fix the actuator?
If a Doge Journey's door won't open, make sure to inspect both the door latch and the connection to the door handle.
