Take the door panel off and see if something is loose. Other than that only thing I can think of is new locks?

How about lock de-icer. Sounds like a frozen mechanism

you need to check your lock mechanism/motor. it probably is gone. what might be happening is that your motor is seized and the reason why you cant open your door but you can see the rod move a little is a sign that your locking mechanism/motor is going bad.

I agree with the lock mechanism motor I bought 2 used for 15 bucks and the installation was easy you will need a special tool to unhook the little motor, or you can buy them new for 25 bucks on ebay...
