2024 4door WT back side door won’t open from inside

[Awoww281]

Anyone else have this issue? No the child lock is not on, but the door behind me won’t open from the inside, I have to actually get out of the car and open it.
The passenger back door works fine…‍
Please help!

I'm not positive how the interior handle actuates the latch but sounds like a cable/linkage came disconnected. @flip may have a diagram showing the parts and how it operates.

Also just tested that the child door locks don’t work at all on the opposing back door, so they never lock! this would happen to me. Doesn’t seem like a hard fix but I guess I should have checked it before I left the lot.. or they should have

Would this also fix the fact that the other door won’t work at all with the child lock? Like won’t lock at all from the inside

Why wouldn’t you take it to the dealer and let them worry about it?
