Problem with Inside Passenger Door Handle

Boo.

Almost a month, just over 1k miles, and a problem seems to have surfaced.

When car is locked, pulling passenger door handle 2x does not unlock the door. It does so for the drivers door. Unlocking the car with the unlock switch, and then pulling the passenger door handle opens the door.

It did work in the past, so something isn't right, will bring it by the dealer next week.

I had a similar issue with the drivers door of my 2005 convertible. It was a known problem with a simple fix. The dealer has been extremely responsive to all of my issues (The door handle, a squeeky door, slippery arm rest and various convertible top issues) up to my 37000 current miles. I'm sure they will take care of you.
