For some reason my passenger door will not open from the outside. I have to open it from the inside everytime. Whats the deal?

You will have to pull off the door panel and take a look to see what came loose or broke. Unfortunately that will be the only way you will find out what's wrong.

at least you can open your door! I know the top hinge of my passenger door needs welded, but the door wont open. i dont know if the action bars, or whatever they are called, are somehow disconnected from the latch, if they need adjusted to pull the latch farther to activate it, or if the latch is seized shut.
So i will need to tear off the door panel... with the door shut. from inside.
Anyway, id tear apart the door panel on yours and see if the exterior button is actuating anything.
