Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: On two occasions my driver's side door handle has broken off when opening the door. i've heard that this is an ongoing problem for the mitsubishi but there has never been anything done to correct this problem. if a recall or reimbursement isn't done, can't they at least make the handles better with some kind of metal reinforcement inside the handle structure instead of just making them out of a rigid plastic??*ak
