frozen doors

geez, every time I tried opening my doors today, they were frozen shut. Three of the four times I kept pulling and pulling and finally they opened, and I would wipe the door jams clean so I don't know where they were getting frozen, I guess on the actual latch. It was so bad at work I had to climb in through my hatch to get into my car and then use all my body weight against the door to push it open, it just did NOT want to open at all. just thought i'd share my fun for the day.

I have had to do the exact same thing. I had to go in through the passenger door today to get the driver's side open, but I have had to climb in the hatch before. Sucks.

nah, it was later at night(11pm) and the only people really in the parking lot were associates leaving to go home, and they all know me and my car. Pretty much, that whole store knows that that is my car. Though this one new manager thought it was one of the guys from ICS(stocker) car... cause it could never be a girl's car....
