I've got a 97 GMC Yukon XL, I have a problem with the inside door handle on the driver side. To open the door I have to pull the handle and give it a shoulder for it to open. I think my problem is my door latch, I think it's giving out? Help

arm rest, under door and side of door and then gently pull back on the
