Any Car Body/Mechanics In Here

I have an 01 Ford ExplorerSport and the door won't open inside or out. So I have to climb thru the passenger side when getting in or out. Trying to save a lil change by doing it myself before I have to take it to a body shop or *gulp* dealership

FYI the door handle is broken on the outside, and the shyt is just stuck on the inside

Oh, that's weird. I don't know if you can take off the door card and see if there's a way to release the door catch from inside the door. In most cars, that is extremely difficult because they'll stick the door latch mechanism balls deep to prevent a normal human hand in reaching it. There may be a cable you can press or pull up on. This is what MF'ing car thieves try to catch when using a Slim Jim. This cable goes from the door latch to the interior door release handle.
