Entry door to vehicle will fail to work to open door from outside. locking you out from the outside. The door handle will pull out as usual but not engage the mechanism that will open the door. If you leave a widow open you can crawl though and open from inside other wise a locksmith will have to come out. I believe it is trimark handle
