I have replaced 3 liftgate handle in 2 years time. The handle broke today. Has anyone had this much trouble with the liftgate handle. ? Is there anyone make a metal handle instead of plastic. ?
 






Might be an issue with your linkage binding? I am still on my factory handle and use it often. Is yours the type that has some sparkles to the plastic? Are you using an OEM replacement or aftermarket?
 






I agree with arco777, sounds like you need to lubricate all the hatch parts. Mine is like turning a door knob, not hard at all.
