Hmm,why not the passenger side door lock,too? *;-}

I use WD, or
other liquid lube on drivers door locks. Actually, it's one
of the very few times I use 10w30 motor oil on a lock.

I've heard from others about graphite in humid states like
Texas. I've never lived there, so I can't comment.

I use graphite on my outdoor mailbox lock,central Florida,and have had no
problem with it.

drivers side door gets all the crap from cars going the other way or
from the same way if they drive in the slow lane on a 4-lane road.
Passenger side not a problem unles driven in passing/middle lane on a
4-lane roadway
