Pull the red handle to disconnect the opener from the door (While door is closed). Try to lift the door by hand, if it is heavy or not possible to open by hand you may need new springs, adjustment, or force adjustment on the opener. Call a professional as springs have very high tension and are dangerous.

Why does a garage door remote open and close door successfully inside of the garage but really hard to open the door out of the garage?
Your car brand won't make any difference. It might be related to the batteries in the remote and the distance to the electronics inside the garage when the opener is outside. You could be trying to open the door from too far away if it happens when you are driving up to the house. If it happens sitting in the driveway check your owners manual in the troubleshooting section. Contact the installer or manufacturer if the manual doesn't help. Regardless, I would check the batteries in the remote first.

Why does garage door remote close but not open garage door?
If the garage door opener worked ok the last time you used it, maybe the battery inside the remote has just gone flat and needs to be replaced? Also, make sure the two are compatible. If either one is new, you have to make sure they code the same (dip switch or rolling) and that they transmit on the same frequency. If they are not compatible, think about replacing the remote as changing the opener is much harder. Just figure out the two things mentioned earlier for your opener and find a remote that matches those. For further advice see web sites such as the Related Link below.
