I cannot tell you how happy I am that I found your tutorial on fixing my driver's side door handle for my 2006 Equinox. I am by NO MEANS a car gal, but I have to say, this was so much fun !! Your video was very easy to understand and follow. I have never fixed anything on a car before... what a sense of accomplishment !! Thank you so much for posting. Next I will tackle replacement of the window motor (it's been acting up).
Ty sooo much! Very simple guide. Saved us lots of money. So we just took the broken handle and switched it with the rear door. No need to spend hundred on a 14 years old car. Wife is very happy!
I need to fix the inside door handle on my 2007 Pontiac Torrent especially since I'm getting tired of having to put my window down to get out 😏 Found your video and I might try it when I have a couple days off. Will update after

Thanks for posting this!! Saved me over $250, it did!! The shop was going to charge me $310.00 to fix this on my truck. I ordered the part for $28 on Amazon, bought a star tool and some glue to put the inner padding back on and fixed the latch all by myself for about $45 total!

I truly appreciate you guys making these videos. Have you been able to do a video yet on this same car but for the actuator? My right rear door lock will not open by remote or by main door panel switch. Thanks again!

i didn't take off the little speaker cover by the mirror. i also didn't buy a new part. the plastic part that broke was a clean break so i super glued it.. yeah it might break again when it gets cold again. but so far it seems solid.
I'm using this video to repair my handle on my Pontiac Torrent 2006, when I go to unscrew the Torc 30 screws I cannot get them loose? I tried a hand ratchet and a rechargeable drill and they won't budge. Any help on getting them off?
Hey 1aauto I have a 2007 chevy equinox and im have trouble with the driver side door lock. I can lock and unlock my doors with the power locks inside the vehicle and and the alarm except for for the driver side. The only way to unlock my driver side door is manually with the key. Can I get some help!
Hi! I was able to follow your video and fix the door handle but now I can’t get my keys out of the ignition and it won’t turn over to start. 🤦🏻♀️ I don’t know how this happened. I did leave the keys in the ignition with it turned off while I fixed the handle. Please help!
+Carie Padget We wouldn't be able to diagnose an issue like that here, you may want to have a local mechanic take a look at it. Thanks for checking us out! 1aau.to/m/Shop-1AAuto-c
just ordered the replacement part from your site, i havent taken it apart yet but if i do and find that the plastic clips holding the rod in place are broken are those numbered parts that can be replaced or do the need to be scavenged?
+BaronBrigs Hi, Baron. We do carry door latch rods, but not for this model. Thanks for your purchase! Good luck and let us know how the repair went! 1aauto.com 866-403-3393
@ We currently do not have an auto repair video on that particular repair. We'll keep this request in mind in the event that we need to make this repair in the future. 1aauto.com 888-844-3393
I am also having issues with the driver side and door lock. I have to unlock from the passenger side or a key. I know there's a short in the door panel. But how can I fix the lock so I can lock/unlock from the driver door???
I am having issues with my drivers side door inside lock that just gets stuck and i cannot use wireless unlock and have to use the key. Any suggestions on how to loosen it ?
You may want to see if the door lock actuator is failing and needs to be replaced. If it's going bad we might have a replacement on our website 1aauto.com Hope this helps you out.
How can I do this with the door shut? My interior handle broke and then 2 Days Later the exterior handle broke. I can't seem to change either handle if the door is closed. When both are broken, how do I get the door open? There has to be a way...
Wow that sounds like a problem. Only thing I can think of is buy a replacement door panel and replacement interior handle, cut open the door panel that is in the car, just hack away with a cut off wheel or something around the interior handle and temporarily install a new door handle inside just to ger it open. That's all I could come up with.

You do great videos, keep up the good work.
Question...is the rear inside door handle, the same as the front inside door handle? In a 2005 Equinox. Can I swap the back to front?
+Kenny Van Pelt It appears the interior door handles for that vehicle were the same from the front to the rear.
Thanks for the reply. I ended up having the dealer take care of it.
Do you buy a new door handle or can you just fix the rod to it
I appreciate your videos, it seems simple, I will call your store and buy a windows motor for my Chevy 2005 and will replace it myself. thanks
just ordered the replacement part from your site, i havent taken it apart yet but if i do and find that the plastic clips holding the rod in place are broken are those numbered parts that can be replaced or do the need to be scavenged?
