    Door handle not working

    Okay, fifteen years of blissful working doors and today my driver side door handle will not unlatch the door. It unlocks and locks fine, by remote and manually but pull the latch up and nothing. It can open from the inside, btw. Any ideas?

    The clip that attaches the rod that runs from the lock to the door hardware is likely broken or has come loose.

    Take off the door panel and you'll be able to find the issue...it's an easy fix with the right part.

    Had the same issue, different clip. Chevrolet dealer in my area had a replacement clip that worked.
