All four of my door handles cracked and broke out within the same year. It scratches you or catches your fingers in them.I have to open the doors in the back for whomever is in the vehicle. This is extremely unsafe! if I have an accident my back passenger could possible be trapped inside the vehicle.

Basically the door handle mechanisms disintegrated. The drivers side front and rear door plastic that surrounds the door handles broke into several small pieces and fell inside the door. I feel this is a danger because eventually the cable that opens the doors will break and I will not be able to open the doors. I have checked into having them repaired but it was very expensive due to the fact that the plastic around the handles is 1 piece with the rest of the plastic of the inside of the door. Also, although this is not a danger - the display screen for all the of electronics of the car, went black several years ago. I am unable to access a lot of the information about the car. We paid over $43,000 for the car - these things should not happen. The door handle really scares me. I have signed petitions to have this recalled as well as contacted the manufacturer. It seems to be a common problem with this car. Thank you

The interior door opening casing crumbles into pieces. Jeep know about the faulty design and actually redesigned this component in 2008. To replace the door handle, the entire door panel must be replaced - at approximately $800 per door just for parts. This item should have been recalled because it creates a safety issue for people trying to exit the vehicle in an emergency.

All four door handles have fallen apart, first by the door panel cracking and giving way, then the handle assemblies fell to pieces over time. My daughter recently cut her hand trying to open the door from the inside, and the only way to exit the vehicle is to roll the windows down and open the door from the outside handles. In my particular case, the 2 rear window motors have failed, so the rear passengers are trapped until someone up front lets them out. This is a serious safety issue for all passengers in the event of an emergency requiring a quick exit from the vehicle. The entire door panel is required to be replaced in order to fix this issue, quotes are about $600 per panel. This should be an expense borne by the manufacturer.

All interior handles are cracked or broken, should there be an accident or fire, the occupants may not be able to exit the car, this is a common problem in most Commanders. Chrysler is well aware of this, they should recall the Jeep and correct the problem< before people get killed.

The interior door handles have all, but one shattered. The last incident, causing a deep cut to a 10 year old child's hand. This is the third handle to break. The risk of injury to my family, due to not being able to get out of the vehicle after an accident has significantly increased because of this defect.

- Dillsboro, IN, USA

Broken interior driver side door handle. Unable to exit because of issue. This is a safety issue. What if I needed to exit if there was a fire, or accident, or even a flood.

- Castle Rock, MO, USA

The interior door handles molding cracks and breaks off. I have one on drivers side that still functions but passenger side is total none working unless you roll window down and open from outside. This makes for a safety hazard, not being able to get out of the vehicle.

- Loves Park, IL, USA

The rear driver's side door handle became inoperable due to the breakage of the door panel. All of the panels have cracked and some of the plastic has fallen into the door cavity. The door handles are loose and now the rear driver's side is completely inoperable. In a case of any emergency that required exiting the vehicle, the passenger in this seat will not be able to get out. I suspect that all the doors will eventually have the same problem. I have seen multiple complaints regarding this issue. Someone needs to hold Chrysler accountable.

- Saint George, KS, USA

The inside door handle is broken. All four or the door handles are broken. The door will not open from the inside.I have many people online say that their Jeep have done the same thing. My girl friend has even cut her hand do to the sharp edges when it breaks. In case of a fire or something we would be trapped inside the Jeep. I would think the Jeep company would recall these trucks but they won't fix the problem.

- Mullins, SC, USA

I have an extreme problem. I have a Jeep Commander and all 4 door handles have broken and now you cant open my rear doors. My kids cant get out unless I let them out. This is a serious safety issue and I cant believe after the hundreds of complaints on Jeep websites, that NHTSA hasn't shoved a recall down Chrysler's throat. C'mon folks this is dangerous!!! hundreds and hundreds of folks having problems. Look on you tube and see what is listed there for you to see. Just regular folks having a multi billion dollar company stuff it to em. Chrysler didn't even offer to send me new door handles. This is a manufacturers error.
