Quite common complaint on that car .Usually caused by lock mechanism sticking .You could strip down door trim and try spraying the likes of WD40 on lock assembly and free off any sticking linkage .Otherwise , new lock if not successful .

If you don't want to strip it down , SOMETIMES a few hard slams can clear sticking mechanism .Or with the door open a few bangs on outside of door with heel of hand at lock works .
