Not quite sure what the release is on the stereo but you should be able to pop of the face plate the radio pretty easy. Once that is off there should be some evident screws or clips holding the deck in place. Once you do get it out just unplug the wiring harness, make sure to label them if it is not obvious. At this point you should be able to see how the case itself comes apart to get your CD out. There is usually a manual eject button you hit with a pin head or paperclip. Once it is out then plug it back in and cycle it a couple of times. Probably still a good unit.

SOURCE: 2000 Dodge Caravan Rear Door Latch

I had the same problem and fixed it using the following steps. I am not an expert or even very mechanically inclined, just desperate to get this fixed without spending any money. This was done on a 1996 Dodge Caravan. Similar steps should apply to a number of years of the Caravans and Voyagers. 

Two people will make removing the panel easier. To do this, you'll need a phillips screwdriver, penetrating lubricant, and pliers. 

First, if you cannot open the door at all: There is a small plastic disc plugging a hole just above the latch on the inside. Pop out that disk, and use a screwdriver to lift the latch mechanism. It should not take a great deal of force to move the latch. When the latch moves, push the door and it should open. 

1. Remove the plastic panel on the inside of the van. You need to remove the handle and several screws on the perimeter of the door. 
2. Disconnect the interior door lights by gently pulling the wiring harness (two of these). 
3. Looking at the door from the interior, there is a small electronic plunger mechanism on the right side with an "accordion" (this is the electric lock). There is a rod that goes from the to the middle of the door, just above the lock mechanism. Another rod goes from the key lock to the latch. This rod, threaded on one end, snaps into a small bracket on the latch. It may need to be snapped back in. There may also be a rubbery/tar-like sticker near the locking mechanisms that can be removed (it can interfere with some of the moving parts). 
4. Manually operate the plunger on the electric lock several times using pliers. Mine was extremely stiff. It should move the rod at least a full inch. 
5. Spray lubricant on the latch, the back of the key lock, and the back of the exterior handle. Also spray lubricant into the key lock itself (where the key goes). Do NOT spray lubricant on the electronic lock mechanism or plunger. 
6. Just above the latch, there is a small hole (only about 1/8" around). Carefully and liberally spray lubricant into that hole in every direction (this is where the rods from the key lock, electric lock, and latch meet). There is a white plastic post that comes out through another nearby hole. Spray lubricant liberally into that hole, too. 
7. Again, manually operate the plunger on the electric lock several times using pliers. It should be considerably smoother to operate. 
8. Put your key into the key lock and pull it out several times. 
9. Spray lubricant into the key lock again, then carefully operate the lock with the key. If it didn't work or was stiff before, it should operate much more smoothly. Operate the electric locks several times. 
10. When operating the lock, you should see the plunger on the electric lock move to its extents (at least an inch). Watch it when using a key and using the electric lock. 
11. Check the movements of the rod and plunger when operating the lock, and the movements of the latch when operating the handle (when unlocked). If anything is still really stiff, use some more lubricant and operate the lock and handle again. 
12. When reassembling the door panel, remember to plug in the two wiring harnesses for the interior lights. 

I hope this helps!

SOURCE: CD player in my 2004 Dodge Stratus doesn't work

are they Burned or copied CD's? CDR, CDRW? cause if they are some radios will not read them and give error messages. if not try using a lazer lens cleaner CD, they sell them at most music stores, you may have lint or dust on the CD lens with summer weather, and pollen in the air and dust, CD player lenses take a beating, so get a WET lazer lens CD cleaner, and that should help fix the problem

SOURCE: 2004 Dodge Ram 1500, Infinity sound system. CD/AM/FM not working.

You most likely need a new radio. They go bad all the time in the Chrysler/Dodge/Jeep. Don't know how many of them I have replaced.

Won`t unlock all other doors work fine,Don`t even hear a click changed fuse still nothing.

Could be the door solenoid either plug has come off from stretched wires from opening and closing door or the solenoid has packed up altogether.Very common on a lot of cars if fuses are all good.

My drivers door on my Dodge avenger 2007 has locked and won't open at all , What can I do?

Man, I can say, it su(ks to be you..I can't fathom why they wouldn't put a key lock in the door. But here's what you have to do.( I don't know what Paula is talking about?) You have to remove the drivers seat to be able to remove the door panel. the panel HAS to come off to get access to the door latch. This is where the problem is. Most likely the latch has to be replaced. But you could have other parts in there that have to be replaced. Once you get the panel off, look inside the door(have a good bright flash light). Since the lock works it could be plastic pieces broken. You'll have to reach in and release the latch. there is a rod that goes from the outside handle down to the latch(the rod could be just hanging there). It is held in place by a plastic clip. Push down on the latch part to open the door. If that doesn't work, you have to go to the inside handle. It is a cable. Follow it back to the latch, grab the latch arm and pull it towards the front of the car. It should release the door. If it still won't release and open. Your going to have to cut/grind the latch out. Probably have to replace the door. Seriously bad set up.

DRIVER'S DOOR DOESN'T CLOSE ALL THE WAY

It sounds like tha door latch is getting stiff, it needs some lubrication. I wouls spray some penetrating fluid into it through the spot where it catch's the door post and work the latch by hand several times until it moves freely. You may have to do this several times, or over the course of a couple days to get it free. Don't be shy with the penetrating fluid. Once you have it working freely, respray it with a spray lube such as white lithium grease. This should keep it working. Don't forget the other doors. Hope this helps.

GMC Envoy 2004 XUV tailgate won't latch closed. Pressure switch makes latch click but when I go to close it, it does not latch.

Two things happen. One the latch is already latched and therefore it's closed before the gate shut, When you try to close it you might notice that the door don't close all the way. This doe'snt have to be thwe case. the other thing that happens if the lock mechanism is working, You here it click? The latch is stuck as the opener is stuck. You might get lucky and spray the latch with Blaster or other rust buster type penatrant. Theres angles though the opening of the latch . Spray on several angles and repleatly close the door trying to vibrate the Penatrant into the stuck area. Looking at the latch use a screw driver to move the latch and see if you can cycle it though it's positions to see if you can latch and unlatch it with the tool and reopen by pullung the handle ( you may need to try ther inside handle too and even the remote openner if you have one. Ussaaaly you need to push the button twice to open the rear hatch so it may take a few trys and spraying to get it to come loose.. Some vehicals stay closed a long time and stuck is the way to think.. But if the door is used often the linkage inside the door mayh have come off the the latch is closed and the linkage doesn't open the laTCH AND THE THING MANAGED TO GET CLOSED WITHT THE DOOR OPEN.

I have a CD STUCK in my 2004 dodge Durango. How

1st try to hit the eject button multiple times in a row. If this doesn't work you have 3 options.
1= pull the radio unit, disassemble case, gingerly remove CD, and reassemble.
2=Go to dealer or repair shop and have them remove. If you have a warranty left, mopar should be able to help. Factory radios have been a problem with Mopar for years.
3= Go buy a new CD and forget about it
