My door is broken

Can't open from inside or outside. I spoke to the dealer over the phone and they told me it may or may not be covered under warranty? wtf?

Unless you opened the door for some reason and damaged it, why would it not be covered under warranty?

Sucks you’ll be trapped in the car for several days until they get it fixed.

I'm just glad that I was skinny enough to get out from the passenger side and didn't get my leather dirty. Next biggest problem is get in...

Yep probably just the rod popped off. I accidentally did that when I was putting on the keyhole cover. Not sure how they get the door open if it's closed but I'm sure there's a way and clearly going to be under warranty

I think The door trim has to be removed and the lever mechanism reattached.

It happened on my wife's Nissan after the body shop failed to reattach it.
