My remote when activated will open all the doors except for the drivers door. The actuator is working but it seems to be getting stuck. If I try to unlock the door with my key I still can not open the door because the key will not turn. The only way to open the door is by hittting the unlock buttom from inside at least twice and then using the inside handle. Has anybody had problems with the door lock binding and not letting the key or actuator do its job???

I had a problem a few years ago where my driver's door on my 97 wouldn't unlock with the power lock or key. I could only open the door from the inside. It turned out to be the latch part, the part you can see on the door. It cost about $35 for the part from the dealer IIRC. It took a few hours to do since you have to figure out how to get everything apart and back together.
