So suddenly yesterday I could no longer open my passenger door from the outside. I took the outside handle off and found that the plastic ring broke, that pushes on the lever to activate the latch.
First of all, it seems idiotic to make a part like this out of plastic! But that aside, can I replace just the plastic part, or do I need to buy an entire outside handle? Attached thumbnail(s) |

I have been through the same thing. The last time I bought a used factory white plastic cam off ebay for $7.00. Had to bend the metal arms just a bit to pop it in. Working fine so far.
