Not locked in, locked out!

I had the same kind of thing happen on my Palazzo. I had it running and stepped out to double check everything before I pulled out. Went back and I couldn't get the door open. The handle worked but it no longer retracted the latch.



Luckily I was able to fashion a bent piece of wire and stick it in the crack between the door and door frame and push the latch back. Once I got the door open and realized what happened I took the lock apart and removed the broken latch and the spring. After that I could only keep the door closed with the deadbolt.


Left about 45 minutes later than I planned. Used it with just the deadbolt holding the door shut until the dealer was able to order a replacement latch.
