I HAVE A 1996 HYUNDIA ACCENT ,I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE THE DRIVERS SIDE DOOR HANDLE 3 TIMES. THE FIRST TIME THE DEALER SAID HE WOULD HAVE TO ORDER ONE ,BUT THIS LAST TIME HE HAD PLENTY IN STOCK ,HE SAID HE KEEPS A GOOD STOCK BECAUSE SO MANY BREAK.THIS WOULD BE A SAFETY HAZARD IF YOU WERE IN A WRECK AND COULD NOT GET OUT. IN LOUISIANA YOU CAN NOT GET AN INSPECTION STICKER WITH OUT THIS HANDLE IN WORKING ORDER.
