The front passenger handle broke off. My husband replaced it with a new part. Then the diver side handle broke off. So he replaced that one too. Then the passenger one broke again (the interior mechanism). The driver one is currently hanging on by a thread and we have to open it very gently. And I'm only talking about the exterior handles here. The interior ones did the same thing. It's like playing whack-a-mole trying to get those all fixed.
