The inside drivers door handle breaks off and cannot be replaced per chevy and gm without installing an entire front inside door panel. You cannot exit the car without lowering the window and reaching outside to open the door. With power windows you cannot lower the window if there are electrical problems. I have had to resort to climbing over the console and opening the passenger door and exiting the car that way when the battery died. In an accident, there is a good possibility you could not exit the car that way if severely injured or on fire. I am not the only one that is having this problem. What can be done to correct this problem??.
The interior door handle on the front passenger door has been making a "click" noise and difficult to open. Today a passenger tried to get out and the handle refused to open. Door was able to open from outside. A door that does not properly open could pose a safety hazard should someone be trapped in the vehicle.
Sunroof frame broken at hinge point of windscreen. Apparently this is a commonly occurring problem. One of many complaints.
I went to get out of my car and the door handle on drivers side snapped off. Until I can get this fixed I believe this is a safety issue such as what if my car caught on fire and I was not able to open my door and many other such things could happen. I have checked and found that this is an ongoing problem with this model of car and chevy has not done any recalls and I was told by a chevy service department that I would have to replace the entire door panel to correct the problem, which is very costly, $441 for parts and labor.
