Power door lock doesn't lock all the way...
Driver's side - it closes until you can't see any orange, but in order to be locked I have to push it another 1/2 inch closed...how big a problem is this?

When your buddy reaches for a 10-pound sledge and says "I think we're gonna have to modify the floor pan, okay?" the answer is NO.

I had the same problem with both doors. I simply removed the door panel, then cleaned with WD-40 until the lock mechanism functioned properly, then I coated everything liberally with white grease. While you're in there, do the power windows too.
