Dorman - HELP Exterior Door Handle P/N:79337
Swap out a cracked, loose or broken outside handle with this DORMAN HELP exterior door handle, part number 97951, a direct-fit replacement for the 2011-2019 Ford Explorer, 2011-2014 Ford Edge and 2011-2015 Lincoln MKX. It gives you a new handle styled after the original for far less than a trip back to the dealership, and it is cataloged for the front left, front right, rear left and rear right doors.
The exterior door handle is the grip you pull from outside the vehicle to release the door latch. Over time a handle can crack, work loose, or stop moving the latch linkage. If a failed outside handle is the reason a door won't open from the outside, this unit replaces it. The latch or linkage can also cause that problem, so diagnose the cause before replacing parts. See the "Vehicles it fits" section for complete fitment details.
