Okay, I get home, try to open the drivers door and "click" then the handle gets real loose. Door will open from the outside, but useless on the inside.

Anyone have this problem?
What's the fix? Is it a cable???

Thanks,
Nate

Well, there's a wire that connects the interior door handle to the latch mechanism. It seems my wire finally snapped from fatigue and I couldn't open the door from the inside.
Went to a salvage yard and tore out one from a wrecked door, and got it for free!
Needless to say I'm fixed, also fixed a burnt out light for the door handle as well, so two birds with one stone.
It wasn't too hard, just a pain to do. But it should last for the rest of the time I have the Tour...
