Default Rear passenger door not opening from the inside

Hello, I’m very new to CL but I’ve been searching for a similar issue I’m having by using the search box - no luck. Anyway I just got a 2008 RX350 last week and yesterday, my son wasn’t able to open the drivers side passenger door from inside the car. I’m not handy but before I take it to a shop, I was wondering if there’s an easy fix anyone knows about? I’m also not getting any good results on YouTube. Thanks!

Rear doors have their "own" locks

Actually you’re right. The lever wasn’t fully in the LOCK position. I had to use a screwdriver and hammer to gently hammer it into position. Real quick fix… Works now, thanks for this!
