| Description of the problem | 2010 hyundai sonata. The rear passenger driver side door handle just snapped off. I went to open the door in a normal fashion and the handle stayed in the open position so i had to push it back in to the closed position. When i pulled on the handle again the handle fell off in my hand. The rear door never did open, now i need to reach through the driver side door to open the rear door from the inside. |
