While trying to enter the vehicle the door handle came off in our hands not allowing us to enter the vehicle on a busy street. I contacted GM who has refused to replace it stating that my vehicle is out of warranty. However, given the overwhelming number of owners with this same issue, this is a design flaw and owners shouldn't have to pay for this $300 repair.

Right rear ext door handle broke. Due to this I was unable to get my child out of the seat he was in. This defect could prevent emergency exit from a vehicle. Per Cadillac forums this has been a well known defect in the part since mid 2007 and effect vehicles at all mileages.
