The driver's outside door handle started to pull away from the door but still worked if you were gentle. I bought a replacement, but am still trying to figure out how to get the old one out.

Outside door handle broke. Frozen rain wouldn't allow the door to open. Next time I'll wait until it thaws. PoS.
