Everything in the interior of this car suddenly started snapping off and breaking apart. My husband has to pull the door apart to replace the interior mechanisms for the inside and outside door handles r-e-g-u-l-a-r-l-y. It's like playing whack-a-mole. The inside driver door handle busted (yet again) so we were just rolling down the window and opening it from the outside. Then the outside handle broke... so the driver's door was literally unusable and we had to crawl in and out using the passenger side. Talk about humiliation.
