You might try pushing down on the side that won't open while turning the key. If still a no-go you can crawl in from the front, pull down the carpeting at the rear, and see what you can see. There'll be rods from the lock out to each latch. The rod for the one that's not opening might be disconnected or out of adjustment.
Another possibility is you have pressure in the shock on the side that pops up, but no pressure in the other sides'. _________________ "..it's made in Germany. You know the Germans always make good stuff."
