It's a fact of life, that with winter weather comes rain, sleet, slush, snow, and ice. Not to mention freezing temperatures that wreak havoc on your vehicle. If you wake up on morning to a frozen car lock, we have just the steps to help you unfreeze it.
1. First and foremost, try opening and checking all the other doors on your vehicle. If one of your vehicles passenger doors opens, you can get inside and start it. Once inside, simply allow your vehicle to run until the car heats up enough to thaw the driver's-side door.
2. If all your vehicles locks are frozen, try using a deicer. Spray the deicer around the frame of the door and give a few minutes to start working. Once you let it sit for awhile, try to gently open the door.
3. Lastly, if your vehicle doesn't open, do not force it or you may damage your vehicles door. Try using a hair dryer and an extension cord, to blow warm air on the car door until it releases and unfreezes.
