Passenger Door Won't Open

Good Morning Everyone,

 

I've been having a mare with my passenger door and was wondering if anyone here could help.

 

A couple of months ago the passenger door stopped opening every now and then. 1 week it would open the next week it wouldn't. 

 

Recently I would try and open the door and nothing would happen but then driving a long I would hit a bump and the door would slightly open and start rattling. I took it to the garage and they spent hours trying to get it open with no luck. They are saying they need to cut the door card out to fix but through I would check here before going down that route. 

 

I've added a link to a video showing what happens when it slightly opens.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated as it is currently doing my nut in. 

 

Thanks!

The door actuator will have become frozen, possibly due to corrosion. We've had this at work yesterday on an S2000. The tech managed to get the door open by holding the handle open, and quite violently rocking the door until it released 

 

Its a long shot, but it did save the customers door card
