The 3rd door has two pivot points before it even gets to the latch assembly. You may have some binding in that as well. Here is a picture of one I just removed from a door I was trashing. It is missing the little short rod that comes thru the door for you to pull on but I added a picture of that separately just so you can see what it looks like. The pivot brackets are attached to the door behind the door panel with 2 phillips screws on each bracket.

Thanks Richard...I will be referring to these pictures when I start investigating my problem. It seems intimidating when working on a component that is enclosed in a structure that limits one's view...especially when you start removing screws from the outside and things start falling on the inside!
