So this morning it was about 15 degrees out and I couldn't open my drivers door on my 2020 JLUR more than a few inches. I could see the bottom hinge was flexing so did not try to pull it too hard. Climbed into the passenger side and moved the car into the garage to see if I could figure out what was going on. Eventually I got it to open but it is really kind of clunky and hard to open and close all of a sudden while the other three doors seemed fine.
The detent bar thingy had some really hard/cold grease on it so I got some lihium grease I had and slathered some on the bar and then opened and closed the door a bunch of times. It seemed to be better but still not opening and closing as smoothly as the passenger side.
Any ideas? Should I take the door off and lubricate the pins?
