This is the outside handle you pull to open the sliding door. It works with the door's latch mechanism, and it offers an alternative to buying the handle from the dealership at dealer prices.
Signs the original handle may need replacing include a cracked or snapped lever, a handle that feels loose, or one that no longer releases the door. The latch and linkage can cause similar problems, so diagnose the cause before replacing the handle.
