Default sticky (?) front doors

Not sure if sticky is the correct word for it, but the front doors on my xb are harder to open than the rear doors. Its not actually when you pull the door away from the car, but more like the lock itself. I have to use more force to pull up on the handle than I do for the rears. The thing is that it just started to happen. It wasn't like this when I first purchased the car. And I just broke 2k miles.

Does anyone have any ideas as to what happened, or if this has happened to anyone else. I don't want to take it to the dealer and have them look at it.

something might be faulty with the lock. You got a warranty use it...

I think there is a bit more drag on the front door handles due too the aditional hardware from the lock mechanisms. I think it's normal though. Let us know what the dealer says. Thanks!
