BOTH OUTSIDE DOOR HANDLES ON LEFT DRIVER SIDE AND BACK PASSENGER SIDE HAVE FALLEN APART WHEN OPENED. EACH OCCURRENCES HAS HAPPENED AT DIFFERENT TIMES. ABOUT A YEAR APART.

I HAVE BEEN DRIVING 65 YEARS AND NEVER HAD DOOR HANDLES FALL APART. (MORE CHEAP QUALITY WE PAY FOR). THIS CAN'T BE HAPPENING TO JUST ME!! *TR
