What is actually happening when you try to open the door using the outside and inside handles, does either move correctly.

Well - locking mechanism not released is the most likely explanation - it's the little tab on the inside rear edge of the door - maybe the mechanism inside the door has become detached/broken off?

Not on an LCV, it isn't. It's the position of the big silver handle at the front of the door
