02 Impala Door Handles

[Dakkin]

Does anyone else have trouble with their Impala door handles. Both of my rear doors open very hard. In fact, most people assume it is locked at first...but it does open if you pull up hard enough. Any ideas/suggestions? Than you!

yea i heard there was a bulletin out for that. it's the rubber seal sticking to the door. you might put a very thin amount of lubrication like 3 in 1 oil or something to the seals of the rear door. thats just an idea. don't know if it would work.

im having same problem on one of my rear doors as well. i wonder if this has been reported?

Yeah, mine too. My son has a hard time opening the rear doors. I thought it was a design issue. Did not know about a TSB on it.

Thanks~!
