Came out to the car this morning and the outside drivers side door handle has stopped working, all others are working so I have to open from the inside

I'm not happy I'll phone the dealer later.

I'm sure your dealer will be able to handle it...... sorry i couldn't resist, hope you get it sorted

Sorry to hear that Del, I hope your problem would be solved soon.

Sure it will be just an open-and-shut case for the dealer...

could just be a loose screw
there seems to be a few on this forum with a loose screw

 

[Del]

Thanks guys

This forum is full of wasted talent, so many comedians

Anyway, phoned the dealer and the first available date is the 28th, so after a bit of complaining they said bring it in tomorrow and they will have a look while I wait.Guess what after washing the car this afternoon the handle has come back to life and all seems to be well, so I will decided in the morning if I should take it in, stay tuned

 

[daytona]

well I have sat here since 7 am waiting to find out did you take it in
or did you not , the suspense is killing me

Maybe he got to the garage, but then couldn't get out?

Afternoon everybody.Well the news is, there is no news, the door handle behaved impeccably today Icannot fault it

So no trip the dealers for the time being, but if happens again I will be knocking on their door to let them handle it

Hi Del,
I have had a similar problem on a couple of occasions, only difference being that I can't open door from the inside. The two times it has happened there was a heavy frost and like you later in the day it was ok. Don't know if the low temperature is a factor or a coincidence.

Hi oldgrantiSounds like the same sort of problem, my handle just felt and lookedloose, like it wasn't connected to anything but it's ok now, really strange
