Yes, I have a suggestion. I'm assuming that your veewee is equiped with
electric door locks that do work (somewhat). Try pushing down (to lock)
the manual door lock button on the front right (passanger side) door. If
this should fail to remedy the problem, check to see which way the key
position is in the rear hatch. If it is in the vertical position, ok; if
on the other hand, it's in the horizontal position change it to the
vertical position. If you have an Owners Manual, read it as this
condition is covered there-in on pages 8 and 9.

Other that that...SHOOT IT!
