2022 lightening. The driver door (but no others) fails to open from the outside - very rare. Two time it has failed to open from the inside. Weather is cold but not always below freezing. I can not find a pattern but will be keeping a log. I tied unlocking with key fob, key pad - nothing works. Truck is running or not - no difference. Spontaneously the issue will resolve itself. The mechanical door patch is functioning normally.
Thoughts?

Hello and welcome to the forums! What trim is your truck?

Regardless of that, the door internals are basic f150 internals. The interior handle manually opens the door directly so if it's not functioning properly there is most likely something wrong at the latch.

Literally any mechanic who has worked on newer f150s can diagnose and fix it.

Since there have been little to no reports of your problem there is little to say except have someone pull the door trim and find out.

Exactly what isn't working? It doesn't open from the inside? You pull on the door handle and the door doesn't open? That's a mechanical problem. If something else is happening please elaborate.
