| Description of the problem | My 2005 jeep grand cherokee has broken door handles. The dealer wants $750 in order to fix the part. It is a safety concern for my children in the back seat who will not be able to get out of the car if there was an accident. This just occurred in the last month. I will fix the piece on my own dime but it seems kind of outrageous for a door handle. If not for my kids i would skip it and just suffer with the broken door handle. |
