Default Rear passenger doors don't open from inside

Anyone know wtf this is about? Is it like a cop car mod or something?

The doors open from the outside but my passenger couldn't out from the inside. Anyone know if I pushed something?

ha i had this happen to me. I'm thinking its the same problem, the inside door handle works off a diffrent cable then the outside. and the cable stop that..well basicly makes it open the door when you pull on the lever, fell/slide out making it mot open!

take the door panel apart, its very simple, few minutes with a screwdriver and check the door handle parts. get back to me if you need help gettin that panel off.

I would say that since both doors do it then it's the child saftey locks. Just open the door and flip the switch that's by the latch on the door.
