This is why KZread is so valuable. It took me no more than 20 minutes to do this job that would have cost a lot of money at the dealer. Thank you so much for posting this.

I agree! A few years back the wife locked the keys in, and the locksmith partially pealed off the chrome on the inside of the door handle when he was unlocking the door... was going to get it replaced at the dealer, but they quoted $500+. So I covered it up with Chrome tape, and been driving my ghetto-mobile around until this weekend where the latch failed completely. Ive ordered the part for $12 on Amazon and will be dropping it in tomorrow. Thanks again for the video.
38 seconds into this video and I can open my door from the inside without having to roll down the window first. This is a neat little trick to use while I await my new door handle's arrival in the mail. Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!

Me too!!! Forget about the removal of panel, lost clips and whatever else they were doing, I’m using the door unlock and handle pull trick. TYVM!!!!

So glad it helped!
Thank you for this video! It saved me $600 dollars from the ford dealership and took me about 25 mins between watching the video and doing it as you did!!
Wife took our car to a mechanic and they quoted $500…. I bought a door handle from amazon. You saved me $490+. Thank you!
Thank you not just for walking through the repair, which is great help and a great public service, but more importantly, THANK YOU for demonstrating the workaround to open the door using the lock latch. Until the part arrived, that saved me from having to constantly open the car by rolling down the window and reaching out to the outside, which was quite annoying in the tight garage.
Thanks to your informative video, I gained confidence as a 60 year old grandma to make this repair myself saving lots of expense! So thankful you posted this as it was fairly easy to do with a few simple tools!
My handle literally gave up about 15 minutes ago. Glad to see this is such an easy fix Thank you!!!

LOL! My handle broke off and now I have to use a vise grip to open the door. This video will help me to replace it myself. Thanks!
Thanks for the video. I had to replace my mom's door handle. It was a breeze thanks to you video.
great video! that trick to use the lock button to open the door almost literally saved my life! too big to crawl through and can't roll down the dang window! sitting in the car and watched your video first to see if I can fix it and BAM! there's that little hint you put in there!
I had this same problem. Thanks to this video, I was able to do it for the price of the part ordered from Amazon, from FoMoCo. Took me way more than 20 minutes but my time is cheap. Thank you for this.
I had that car for over 289000 km and i had no clue about the tip with the lock mechanism, thanks ! Won't change it than !
Great video. Many thanks. I too put my knee on one of the screws. Food for thought, if you use a cordless driver, turn the torque down to about 2 or you can run the screw through the bezel for the handle. All good now. I broke mine by using the handle to pull the door shut.
Thanks so much! I just finished this repair for a whopping $10 part and 20 minutes of my time. Also thanks for the tip about opening the door with the lock mechanism... It took a few days for the part to arrive, so being able to open the door easily in the meantime was great.

Excellent Video. Thank you so much. My daughter has a Fusion and lives out of town. I was able to install the handle during one of her short visits. Took me less than an hour. Cheers!
Watched your video yesterday Oct. 21st. Ordered from Amazon and got it today Oct. 22nd at 2pm. Part is in and yea I can open the door now. Thank you so much!
Lifesaver!! As a single parent I don't have a lot of money and when my handle broke I panicked about the cost of repair. Thanks to this video I replaced it myself with this same part from Amazon. Thank you for this content! 🙌🏾

I have to admit. This is the best and most detailed video I've seen on KZread. Thank you. This is my second comment in 5 years, so that should tell you how much I appreciate this. Keep them coming.
Perfect video. Saved me an expensive service call, had exactly this problem. Very good step by step walk through!
Great video this helped me a lot. I got in my car for my lunch break and next thing I know I couldn’t get the handle to go 😂
Thanks this was helpful. Thanks for saying the screw sizes was I wasn’t searching for 15 mins.
Thanks so much! When my car door handle stopped working this week, I was able to order a part and fix it myself with minimal cost and time because of this amazing video. Great work, very specific, and thanks again!
Thank you for the information and the great video. Your tip about holding the handle out a little and then using the lock as the mechanism for opening the door really helped me out! I plan to replace the door handle, but this makes life easier in the meantime.
I’ll echo what others have said. Kudos for posting this video. Saved a boat load of cash and was done in less than 30 mins. One beer job at best. What a stupid design with the plastic that breaks. Glad I have the knowledge now to perform this repair if it creeps up again!
Are we all just going to act like he didn’t say “oh fu**” when he set the panel down 😂😂

Thanks. The handle on my ‘10 Fusion just broke yesterday. Great video. Great tip on opening the door with the lock lever.
My 2010 Ford Fusion's driver door handle broke again for the 2nd time in 2 years. The first time, I had a dealership fix it because I was traveling. This time, I watched this video, ordered the parts from Amazon and installed it in 15 minutes. Your information about putting everything together was very helpful!! And I saved $150.

Followed your directions and it took all of 20minutes including pulling the tools from the toolbox. Thank you!
Awesome video! I was able to do this with my son's help in about 15 minutes. You definitely saved me from having to take it to a repair shop.
I want to thank you for putting up this tutorial on how to replace the the door handle. It helped me and saved me money because I was able to replace it myself. Great video keep it up.
Thank you for the video. I have the exact same problem with my 2012 and the disassembly instructions saved me a lot of time. Also, thanks for the trick with opening the door with the lock, solved my headache in the interim.
You made it look simple. When you said it took about 10 minutes, I thought you were exaggerating. With your help and the correct tools, it did take about 10 minutes. Thank you for taking the time to make the video!!
Thanks so much. I spent more time finding the right tools than putting in the new handle. The part you had broken was the same as mine. Now I have to fix the other 3 doors. Thanks ford for putting in junk.
This video was spot on! I did this myself in about 20 minutes!
Wow glad i saw this video...i was rolling my window down for so long until i saw the lock trick. Thanks!
Thank you very much. I got my installed in under an hour by myself. Couldn't done without this video. 💕💕💕😊

My 2010 Fusion door broke. Thanks to you now I know how to fix it.
Thank you, thank you, and thank you again! For the make-shift opening tip, for the clear instructions, and the reasonably-priced part linked on Amazon.
I just started college three hours away from home, and my driver's side door stopped opening from the inside on my second day of class. You saved me having to rely on packaged noodles for a month!
Thanks for the video, I know it's been awhile since it was posted but it's still helping people out!
Great video. I agree with all the pervious comments about the door lock trick. Made the repair an easy DIY.
Thanks for posting! It takes all of twenty minutes.
Great video! Thorough explanation! Found other videos for it, but yours was hands down better. Ordered the part on Amazon, it was received today and installed today. When I called the local ford dealership earlier this week I got quoted $275 to fix. Thank you for the video and saving me some dough!

Excellent!!
Awesome video Thank you. I just had this happen on my 2012 Fusion. The exact issue right down to the breaking area “notably made in plastic” Same cable being used for the lock and door pull. Perhaps a common problem because the mechanism part doing the actual work is plastic. You can’t create a part without knowing this will happen. Lol. Like Great video at any rate and appreciated!
Thanks for the video! Big help!

Thank you for this video. This is the second time I've had this handle break. First time cost me $120 for parts and labor. This time, the part was $20 and 30 minutes of my labor. You just saved me about $100 in repair costs because I'm not a handy guy and couldn't have done it without a video showing me how.
PERFECT!

Order the replacement door handles in metal form not plastic again! Metal ones cost more but are much much more reliable in the long run with little chance of breaking again!
Thank you!
