Door lock on drivers side will lock when you shut door?

Answer:

There is a small spring in the door latch assy that breaks. the whole latch assy is around $40 and not too hard to replace. after i got the new one I compared them and I think you could make the spring it looks like the one on a vhs tape cover only larger. at $40 I didn't think it was worth the effort. now my pass side is doing it. when the driver side did it you had to go around to the pass side and reach through as it wouldn't unlock with the key.
