is there a write up on how to fix the door handle? I can't even open my door anymore, i remember there was a piece that bends in these.

and how to take it off the door would be nice.

Inside or outside handle? I've never come across anything "bending" before... That's new.

outside

Remove the inside door panel. There is a rubber plug covering one access hole for the screw. Remove that plug, and detach the rod keepers from the ends of the lock and handle rods. Remove the 2 8mm bolts that hold the handle bezel. Remove the bezel from the outside. The handle is attached to a plastic carrier that is a part of the latch assy.

Normally removing the latch will come out through the access panel (covered by the foam insulation). Make sure the window glass is all the way up, otherwise it'll be impossible to remove the screws and handle.
