You are in luck! This IS a common problem with a simple cure. The interior light SWITCH IS INSIDE THE DOOR NEAR THE STRIKER PLATE LATCH. The switch sticks in the on position unless lubed occasionally.
Spray WD-40 INTO THE SLOTS behind the EXTERIOR DOOR HANDLES. Just lift the handle to reach the slots and spray. . DON'T BE AFRAID TO SPRAY IT GOOD THE MORE YOU USE THE CLEANER IT WILL GET.
