I had same problem. Next time you open it, lubricate the latch. Did wonders for my '99. I hope it is that simple.

1. Door control module. The locking relay is toast, so either replace the relay or module.

3. Sometimes I use a trick. Hit the trunk button on the inside and close the door. The air pressure will help pop it open.
