Anyone know where I can get my door locks repaired? They all work on the one key but the passenger door takes a lot of effort and the tailgate opens when it wants! :roll:

They probably just want stripping and cleaning. Don't use oil or grease to lube them as it attracts dirt, use powdered graphite.

The passenger lock won't lock from the inside and only locks from the outside if you turn the key almost to breaking point and pull the trigger at the same time. The tailgate sometimes opens when you push the button in but other times the button goes in button the tailgate doesn't pop open.
Is it a poxy job?
 
Passenger door sounds like the lock/catch mechanism is at fault and not the key/barrel.

As for the tailgate, pull the cover off and take a look at the lock. It's a simple design so should be clear if something's loose etc
