This happened to me when I replaced the actuator on my passenger door. My guess would be that the long metal rod that connects the door handle to the latch is bent where is goes around the rear edge of the window glass. Unfortunately he will have to disassemble the door trim and pull back the vapor barrier to see if this is the case
