Description of the problem	Vehicle was stationary (parked in driveway). The door handle (right rear) came off in my daughter's hand when she tried to gain access into the back seat. No one could get into the car through that door until the handle was fixed. When we reached our destination, she had to exit the vehicle using the left rear door. We notified global auto mall, the dealership where we bought the car, because i had paid extra when buying the car to get coverage for 10 years or 100,000 miles. Global auto mall told us the door handle was not a covered part of the warranty! Moreover, they had to send the door handle out for a painting job. So we had to make another appointment with the dealer's repair department to have it fixed.
