...and a few more tugs will break the handle.
I need some help with this. I have to pull up on the handle almost hard enough that something will break. That final tug upward reeks of something giving up.
I removed the door panel and checked the action the best I could (it was getting dark) and sprayed some lube on the linkage joints. I am not sure I got the lube at all the critical joints, . It seems like something is out of whack with the extra effort pulling up, pulling up more than normal.
I saw a barely accessible adjustment on the inside near the handle. This is a threaded barrel near the top of the linkage. Would this solve the problem?

Edit:
I just found this thread.
door handle!
One of three things. Lube, adjust or replace the door handle. Will a bad door handle cause this issue? I had never replaced one and not sure how that would cause the problem.
