| Description of the problem | The interior door handle housings on all 4 doors are broken. As a result, it is very difficult to open the door handles from the inside. In order to exit the vehicle, one must use the exterior handles. Jeep indicated replacement of the entire interior door panel is required to fix at a cost of $800 per panel. This is a safety issue preventing quick egress from the vehicle in the event of an accident and is a common, known issue with these vehicles. When the driver door handle housing broke, the sharp plastic cut my hand, causing it to bleed. Subsequently, i have cut my hand again more than once on the sharp, broken plastic door handle housing. |
