Quick question. The other day my door latch go turned around and now my door wont close. Its the part where the l= looking piece in the door clicks into the post on the body. Do I gotta take the door apart to fix this or is there a quick fix? I cant drive around with my door stuck open. Thanks guys

^ exactly. should be an easy fix, it happens to my passenger door all the time for some reason. just press in the door **** button as said and you should be able to simply spin it back to where it should be with your fingers. if i remember right you have to twist up with it counter clockwise
