[Chuck Wagon]

I've got a '96 Taurus Wagon.. And for some reason, the driver's side doorhandle doesn't work. The door opens fine, as long as you open it using the interior doorhandle. When the door is unlocked, the doorhandle still feels locked and won't move.

I've searched, and I can't find this to be a common issue. Help? Thanks in advance

It sounds to me as if something might be jamed in the mechanism inside the door. It is pretty easy to pull the door panel and inspect the linkage. Check teh little plastic fittings that connetct the linkages together

Try spraying some WD-40 on the lock mechanism, they have a tendency to stick sometimes.
