Call the dealer ask a mechanic how to open door they likely have a trick and they want you to buy the parts so ask for an exploded view of door and lock you might be able to fish the window and yank the lock bar

Testimonial: "I work at the damn dealership ! My technician claim he can open the door without breaking a $843 door panel."

2010 Hyundai Santa Fe Limited V6 why the key remote want lock the left front driver door?

You may need to replace the power lock actuator motors inside the door . Alternatively, you can try disassembling the paneling on the left side under the steering wheel and removing two black relays on the side closest to the steering wheel. Then remove the relay covers and clean the contacts with a 1/8 fine strip of 600 wet/dry sandpaper.

I have a 2010 Santa Fe, the passenger side front door will not open from the outside. When you unlock the doors the door will pop open.

This sounds like the door actuator mechanism is failing. DO NOT drive this vehicle until it is repaired! You will need to strip the door panel off and replace the whole actuator. Ths is a pain in the tailbone job that will take the skin off at least one knuckle so expect it to take you at least a whole day to do.

How can I manually unlock my rear door if the actuator is bad. My rear fate door is stuck in the lock position and I can not unlock it with the key fob or auto lock. 2007 rav 4

Access the gate latch from the inside by removing the interior door panel. Once the gate is open, replace the actuator and you should be good to go.

My drivers side rear door will not open from the inside or outside

I had exact problem Santa Fe 2007 2008 lock was stuck in locked position and door would not open from inside or out. All other doors would unlock with auto key remote. Carefully work the inside lock towards the open position as you lock and unlock the door with the remote. As you press unlock try to assist the lock to open. I did this a few times and the lock became free to the open position and all worked perfectly after this.

2010 Hyundai Santa Fe Rear Hatch Won't Open. I already opened up the interior panel and trigger mechanisms are working fine. I think the latch itself is stuck, probably because I had my back window...

I'd love to know how this turned out as have the same problem with 2009 Santa Fe now.
Broken rear window has been removed but cant open the hatch.
I have removed the internal liner and all the lever rods are attached. A bit of glass inside the door and I have tried banging on the door to unblock it. Squirted CRC in the area and will leave until daylight and have another go.

I have 2002 Santa Fe Hyundai. One of the rear doors will not open because I think the locking mechanism is "off track". Can I purchase a tool at my local automotive store to open up the panel and attempt...

Should be just snap on ands of if you break one you should be able to pick it up at any auto parts store. First remove the door handle and if necessary the electric window switch and snap the panel off. Next you will need a flash light and a pair of needle nosed pliers because unless you have small hands you won't be able to reach it. Owe yeah, be prepared to tear through the plastic behind the panel to access the handle. You may also try to pull ut off from a corner to see if you can remove it without destroying iy.

My 95 GMC safari, rear hatch stuck closed on passenger side

You have to crawl in the back remove the panels and find the actuator(s), when you find them check for any linkages the may have fallen off. Gm uses little clips that get brittle and break. if it is a clip reinstall rod with a new clip or reinstal rod and secure with mechanics wire.

If the actuator is broken you can hook up a volt meter to the pin outs and test for power by hitting the door lock unlock button. If there's power then chamces are that the actuator is faulty. if theres no power check ground connections fuses relays and re test. good luck
