Latches/locks/linkage problem #1

My key fob started to have problems at first, unlocking my drivers door. I have all the doors set to lock when put in gear and unlock when the key is removed. I had shut the vehicle off but my door did not electrically unlock so I tried manually to lift the button and it would not lift high enough to allow the door lever to release the door. The door was inoperable. My vehicle is a dts, the seats are bucket type. I could not get out over the console or lift my leg past the dashboard easily. The door will not let me in by key or keyfob or out by manual unlock. A safety issue?.

Door Latch problem #2

The right passenger side door lock becomes inoperable. The lock will not release, and consumer is locked inside the vehicle.
