Well I did'nt have this happen but my spring mechanism that pops the door out after you push it broke on mine kind of a hassle till I can get to
dealer to fix it. Good thing I have a new coupe coming next month

I see that theres a little white bar that slides into place to preven the door from opening when the car is locked, but mine doesnt move it just quivers and sticks. Anyways, any idea if it is easy to fix myself or am i going to have to take it to infiniti and end up paying like 300 bux in labor:0( Hmm would it be covered under warranty?
TIA

this problem has been occuring a lot with nissan/infiniti. happened to my dad's murano. why can't they just use a simple push button release. At least its proven technology. On my dad's murano, it had to be replaced 3 times. Once the gas door wouldn't open and we were in them mountains with gas tank light on. that was scarry.

Here's a link to an earlier string for this problem. Good info here and I added a "how to" to repair the mechanism.
