It is difficult to open the door using the interior door handle. There is no problem using the exterior door handle. It seems as though the interior door handle needs to be adjusted to tighten things up. ...

the 1999 suburban interior door handles are plastic you cannot adjust them, only if they have came of the screws, usualy replacing them is the only solution... remove the small plactic cover behind the door handle and check to see if you have any broken parts on the handle you will notice if there is if you see like a whitish strecht mark on your beige or grey handle

How do I replace the driver's side door handle on a 2001 Chevy Tracker 4 door

Interior or exterior handle? Remove the door panel first. They make a special tool for removing the window crank, but usually you can get it off with a screwdriver. There is a little clip under the crank that needs to be removed first. Then remove the door handle itself, this has a screw in it. Then pull the panel off. With the window in the fully down position or the up position you should be able to get to the handle itself for the exterior. If it's an interior handle just remove that without taking the door handle off. This is all pretty self explanatory once you see it.

I have a 2001 Chevy Suburban 2001. the driver

Usually this problem is solved by opening the driver's door & looking for a broken wire. This wire usually breaks at the flex point of the harness between the door & frame. Carefully slice outer coating revealing hidden wires. The broken one is the culprit. Hope this helps. Good luck!

2001 Suburban 1500

try to remove your door panel and check to see if your latch is still connected. some times the rods will drop off. That or your catch on the door itself has come loose and dropped down enough to cause the door to stick and will not open from both inside or out
