Angry Door Handles

I'm not sure if anyone else is having this problem but it seems that all the interior door handles like to stick. They won't retract back in. Is this a problem where I need to replace them or something that WD-40 will fix. It's wierd because it happens to all the doors except the drivers side.

did you check your door springs? If you got aftermarket speakers in the door, chances are they poped the door springs out of place....get in there with a flathead and pop them back in..

wd-40 might work - - ur door latch is probably sticking - - thats why it won't let the door handle go back - - used to have that problem with my old car sometimes - - -oil it up good and see if works . . .?

My spring completely fell out. Lucky bastards. Took me a long time to try compressing and fitting it back on the pegs in the dark. Even in the light the next day it took me a while. When that spring pops though your doors won't lock at all.

You could try checking the cable that pulls the door open though...they can shift if the plastic can't hold them still or if they get pulled they can pop out of place. Just take it to the dealer though...make them figure it out.
