Default Supercab driver's door issue

Hi guys, run into my first issue on my 2015 Supercab XLT. Started yesterday, it was roughly 20 degrees farenhiet, remote would not unlock the drivers door. Had to manually unlock with the key, or go round the passenger entrance and pop the driver's door open that way. When I get in the truck and try to close the door, the driver's door will not latch until the truck warmed up a little bit. Replicated the same issue this morning. What a pain. Anybody run into the same issue?

Also have a supercab and have had my drivers side rear door not want to latch on the bottom. Talk about a frustrating ride to work with the door rattling and the damn idiot door light coming on

It done it on a real cold morning but seem to come out of it later in the day when it warmed up some. I sprayed a little pb blaster in there and it hasn't happened again but then again it's not been that cold lately.

Possibly the window seal is leaking and freezing rain water in the works, look to the bottom weep holes for moisture as it melts. It is easy to get a leak by running the window down with ice on it.

Happened to me on the passenger side the last 2 days with temps about -5 degrees Celsius. Didn't realize there was a TSB, so thanks Lifted.

So mine is doing this. However it's build date is 9-7-15 so the TSB supposedly doesn't apply, at least that is what the dealer is telling me. anyone know if there is a new TSB? For clarification, temp has to have dropped below 20 degrees F and the door won't latch after it has been opened with the inside handle, latches fine if only the outside handle has been used.

Just checked the build date on my truck; its 12.10.2015, so interesting enough the TSB currently doesn't apply.


The drivers lock is now no longer responding to the FOB, even after driving the and warming the truck up. Have to manually put the key into the lock and turn it to unlock it.

My Screw Cab was built in June and I had the driver rear door actuator just buzz and not lock or unlock. I could still open the door manually from both sides. The main problem with this was not being able to lock it remotely. This all happened after the truck sat out all last week with night time temps in the teens.


I drove it on Saturday and after half hour of driving the door still buzzed but did not move the lock. I twisted the kid lockout back and forth and then drove it another hour. It has worked normally since.
