Consumer Description

THE DRIVER DOOR OPENED WHILE I WAS DRIVING AND I AM CERTAIN THAT I CLOSED IT BEFORE DRIVING. THEN, THE INNER HANDLE PREVENTED MY DOOR FROM BEING OPENED FROM THE INSIDE CAUSING ME TO HAVE TO ROLL DOWN THE WINDOW TO OPEN THE DOOR. A WEEK LATER, TODAY, AND THE LOCK HANDLE HAS NOW FALLEN OFF. NOTICE PHOTOS OF BROKEN LOCK THAT FELL OFF, ALSO, THE DOOR HANDLE HAS ZERO TENSION WITH ONLY A FINGER CAUSING THE DOOR HANDLE TO BE INOPERABLE.
