If your car door behaves unusually, here are the steps you should take
to protect yourself: 1. Inspect the Passenger – Side Door Handle If the
key won’t turn, check the handle on the passenger side for any obstruction. A small object,
like a penny might be lodged there, preventing the mechanism from working
properly. 2. Stay Aware of Your Surroundings Always be vigilant. Trust
your instincts—if something feels off, it likely is. Seek assistance or arrange,
for someone to meet you at your vehicle if you’re uneasy. 3. Avoid
Returning Alone to Your Car If you can’t open the door,
move to a well-lit, crowded area and call for help. Don’t return to
your car alone or distracted, as thieves often prey on such opportunities
