<VV> stuck door - update

[J R Read_HML]

Hi Larry,

Yes, I know that was the analysis, but I believe that conclusion was reached
without the knowledge that the car was not sitting on level ground.  I hate
to picture him climbing up on the lift in order to kick the door open if he
in fact just needs to put the car on the ground.
