I replaced the freezer lever assembly and spring fair quickly. Just in case they were worn.
My problem was the cam closure was cracked. So replaced with new one. I didn't even have to remove the freezer door. Used my ratcheting right-angle screwdriver with a 20-torx bit. Took all of 15 minutes to remove the old and put on the new one. There is no need to remove the door if you don't have this handy little tool it's easy to get.
