Tailgate sticks - very hard to open 200 1992

First time poster here...great site...

The tailgate on the wagon is very difficult to open. The last two times I had to pull out the T-latch inside the car while my friend pressed the button and pulled the latch handle outside.

Lubricated the parts with a spray lubricant. Still stuck. It seems to me that pressing the button all the way just barely puts pressure on the mechanism to release the latch. Any way to change the sensitivity or action on the button?

No accidents nor dents on the tailgate.
Any tips on how to fix this problem will be greatly appreciated.

TIA, sbike
