i have had the grab handle on my truck break 3 times now. they are cheap plastic handles with no significant backing to them. ie... no metal washers or reinforcements... the first time was replaced under warranty the last two times i had to pay 80 dollars a piece for. im not a big guy about 185 and i do not hang on or abuse the handles... they are just for looks. someone is going to get hurt when they try to use these handles to get in a truck. some super bright dodge engineer must of thought that plastic parts are significant enough to hold the weight and force of an average owner. this buds to you mr dodge engineer

I am all of 5' 1" and i have a broken handle also. i do not weigh much and mine just broke. this is really starting to annoy me. i am thinking i don't like my truck too much longer. i understand why chrysler is failing. i have no sympathy.
