Steve,
Mine is kind of erratic on the rear hatch lock also.  All the other
locks on the van work fine.  It often takes a lot of wiggling, moving
the key a little bit less than all the way in, etc.  Once it's in the
right place, it turns easily.  What is the proper way to clean and
lubricate the lock cylinder?
Thanks,
Edward
