I have had to replace 2 door handles in a year due to them breaking off in your hand with routine use, these are cheap plastic handles with no apparent metal reinforcement. i have owned many vehicles and never had door handles just snap off like this. i am currently contacting the dealer for a 3rd replacement handle. this is a serious safety issue since in an emergency if the handles break then there is no access to the vehicle for rescue other then breaking windows. *nm updated 02/22/07.*jb | |||

Incident: i own a 2004 mitsubishi endeavor. about 2 months ago, the door handle/pull on the outside front passenger door broke during routine use. as it turns out, the handle is made of plastic. my dealer claims there is a back order for replacement handles, implying this is a widespread problem there are no saftey issues, simply inconvenience issues. in all my years of owning cars, this has never happened to me. |
