Hi:

     I'm experiencing a door latch problem.  The inside door handle
will open the (drivers) door sometimes but not others.  

     I've
disassembled the door and removed the door latch mechanisms.  On inspection it
appears the cams on the rear inside door mechanism which activate the
unlatching mechanism can wear.  At the push of the door handle the cams can
sometimes slide over the top of each other instead of camming against each
other to unlatch the door.

     Anyone dealt with this problem.  The fix ?
