Oh, dude, when both handles are broken, you can try rolling down the window and using the exterior door handle, or you could crawl through the trunk if it's accessible. Worst case scenario, just call a locksmith or break a window - but like, maybe don't do that unless you're in a real pickle.
open it from the inside? actually i had the same problem. the handles themselves were not broken but the spring inside had come out of place and i had to bend it back so that it would push down far enough to open the door, also check the salvage yards.
how do I open a door when the handle broke and the part theat connects into the outer wall will not release?
Roll down the window, reach outside, and lift the door latch or lever.
the linkages to either the handles or the lock or both has come off. here's the kicker... you need to open the door to take of the inside door pannel to fix it. try to remove the pannel with the door closed. or a "skilled" vheicle locksmith could open it from the outside...but it's not cheap.
crawl in from the trunk i do
If both the interior and exterior handles of a 2003 Hyundai Accent are broken, you can try unlocking the door using the key in the driver's side lock, if accessible. If the lock itself is stuck or you can't open the door that way, you might need to use a slim jim or a similar tool to manipulate the lock mechanism from inside the door. If those options fail, consider removing the door panel from the inside to manually disengage the lock mechanism. If you're unable to do it yourself, seeking assistance from a professional locksmith would be advisable.
Check the Actuator
No, it is not safe to open a garage door with a broken spring. It is recommended to call a professional to repair the spring before attempting to open the door.
XJ40 door handles are made out of a very brittle metal that breaks easily. On the inside of the handle is a protruding arm into which is inserted a rod that is pushed down to release the latch when you pull up on the handle. The arm on your door handles is broken. You can buy rear handles on Ebay. Take care to get the proper year. 1988-1990 handles are smaller than 1991-1994 handles. The good news is that the rear handles are interchangable left to right, as they have the little arms at both sides of the handle. Kids and ham-handed buffoons do not mix well with XJ40 door handles.
To open a door on a 1998 Avenger that has a broken handle, a person might have to use another door to gain entry to the vehicle. Then the door can be opened from the inside.

REPLACE EXTERIOR DOOR HANDLES WITH AFTERMARKET PARTS. THEY ARE MORE DURABLE AND COST LESS THAN DEALER PARTS. YOUR LOCAL AUTO PARTS STORE MAY HAVE SOME IN STOCK OR YOU CAN ORDER THEM FROM ONLINE PARTS RETAILERS. THERE IS A SMALL METAL PIECE THAT HAS BROKEN ON YOUR HANDLES INSIDE THE DOOR. YOU CAN REPLACE THEM YOURSELF. GET A HAYNES REPAIR MANUAL FROM YOUR LOCAL AUTO PARTS STORE FOR INSTRUCTIONS ON REMOVING THE INTERIOR DOOR PANEL AND DOOR HANDLE REPLACEMENT. MAKE SURE YOU INSTALL THE DOOR HANDLES IN THE PROPER DOOR AS THEY ARE MADE SPECIFICALLY FOR RIGHT OR LEFT DOORS. IF YOU HAVE LARGE HANDS, YOU MAY NEED TO FIND SOMEONE WITH SMALLER HANDS TO GET AT THE BOLTS HOLDING THE HANDLES IN PLACE. BE VERY CAREFUL IN REMOVING THE OLD HANDLES. DO NOT PRY THEM OUT IF THE ARE STUCK AND DON/T OVER TIGHTEN THE NEW ONES. YOU MAY CRACK YOUR DOOR. IT IS MADE OF FIBERGLASS AND IF YOU DAMAGE THE MOUNTING HOLES, YOU WILL BE LOOKING FOR A REPLACEMENT DOOR.
