[s-cars] Kids the culprit of screwed up door handle ??

[Vincent Frégeac]

I had the exact same experience, beside the fact that "kids" were 30+. My
door handle problem started with cable popping out almost each time I had a
passenger. Apparently the door handle was not coming back fast enough to the
passenger's taste so (s)he pushed it back and here you are for another door
panel... repeatedly until I found the trick of strapping a tiny tie rack
around the cable/lever with my little fingers. Then the winter came and the
door refused to lock each time the temperature went below 20F. That's when a
propane torch comes handy for a quick morning fix.

Vincent & Darren, 
 
Like your comment about the door handle problem cause.... I have had a
couple of door handle
problems, all related to the back pasenger door with non thinking kids going
in and out.  It usually
happens right after a friend of my daughter has been in the back seat.... I
suspected either too
much force on the inside handle or letting it snap back into retracted
position.... I think you may
have it right.  Mine has been good for quite a while ... oops, I have likely
just infected the list
or myself... we all know how that goes, sorry.... 
 
Anyway, watch those kids, they are hard on our fragile door handles!
