Dorman - HELP Exterior Door Handle P/N:90727
Bring back a door handle that looks and works like the one your vehicle came with, using the Dorman HELP Exterior Door Handle, part number 81997. It fits many vehicles, among them the 2005-2009 Chevrolet Equinox, 2004-2008 Chevrolet Malibu and 2006-2011 Chevrolet HHR. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list.
Instead of paying dealership prices for a new exterior handle, this direct-fit replacement for the listed applications was engineered to copy the fit and appearance of the stock handle.
An outside door handle is the lever you pull to release the door latch from outside the vehicle. Signs it may need replacing include a cracked, broken or loose handle, or a handle that moves but no longer opens the door. A worn latch or a disconnected linkage rod can cause the same symptoms, so find the cause before replacing parts. If the handle is the failed part, this unit replaces it. Consult the vehicle service information for the correct removal and installation procedure.
