I have taken my Volvo to the Volvo repair shop 3 times for this. First they told me they were required to Lube the latch. Next they were instructed to replace the latch. Then this flowed over to the next year when the cold weather arrived again... This time they are replacing the latch again. The problem exists only on my driver door and occured only after a winter rain or after driving on wet raods. Seems to me water is somehow infultrating only this door. I pick the car up today so we will see if the new latch works but I fear I won't know now until next winter! They tell me there is a service bulletin on this condition from Volvo. The door latch will work if the car runs long enough and the heater thaws the mechanism out. You may have to drive 4-5 miles holding the door closed as I have till thawing occurs. VERY ANOYING!!!

1999 Ford Taurus door latches freezing up in cold WEATHER?
My 2002 Sable does this and the best thing I've found to do is to put some WD40 on the rubber parts of the doors and the latch itself.

Why won't my Mercedes doors won't close automaticly?
You need a local mechanic who works on European/German vehicles, not necessarily an overpriced Mercedes dealer repair place. Your car door latch could be either frozen if your in a cold climate or just turned into the latched position. With car door open lift handle to free latch. Now turn latch ( a curved metal assembly... needs a mechanic.
