The other day, the exterior door handle broke off when I was opening the car door. I now have to enter from the passenger side. Nothing traumatic happened to cause this, and I don't use excessive force on my door.”

“Exterior door handles are shearing off. Left rear door handle came off on 4/24/2016. Right front door handle came off today 11/29/2016. Handles both came off when I pulled on them to open the door. No unusual force involved. Handles are completely plastic. Shear point is narrow piece which connects handle to interior connector to door latch. I have never before heard of car door handles failing.”
