THE DRIVERS SIDE INSIDE DOOR HANDLE BROKE OFF. AFTER REACHING DOWN TO OPEN THE DOOR FROM THE INSIDE THE METAL ATTACHED TO THE HANDLE SNAPPED OFF AND I WAS LEFT HOLDING THE PLASTIC HANDLE AND UNABLE TO OPEN MY DOOR FROM THE INSIDE. THE METAL IS MADE FROM A BIMETAL PRODUCT AND APPEARS TO BE FRAGILE AND LITE FOR THE PURPOSES OF OPENING THE DOOR. INCASE OF AN EMERGENCY THIS COULD HAVE BEEN A LIFE THREATING SITUATION. AFTER SEARCHING ON-LINE THIS APPEARS TO BE A PROBLEM MANY CONSUMERS ARE HAVING WITH THEIR GMC VEHICLES. I WAS PARKED IN A PARKING LOT WHEN THIS OCCURRED, I DID NOT PUT UNDO PRESSURE ON THE HANDLE.
