Kia Optima door handle (broken door handle)

[@aicradiohead]

My brute of a daughter ripped my handle off last week. I bought the smaller handle part off eBay and after watching your video it was fixed in 5 minutes. My car is pearl white, the part came in grey. There is a little screw on the part where you can pop the white cover off your old part and the grey off the new and swap them. It was pretty easy just needs a really small torx (star) bit. Might be a #6 but the bit I found didn’t have markings. Thanks again, you ought to put your Venmo at the end of these videos, I’d send you a couple for the help.

This literally happened to me tonight 😂

[@patsfan4708]

This video only benefits a small percentage of the population, but man is it helpful to us Kia owners. My daughter’s car iced over and the handle popped off trying to open the frozen door. It’s been stressing me out for 2 days and after watching this vid, it took me 5 mins to fix. I’m now her mechanical hero. Great vid. Thanks for your help!

Thanks for a great video! Our sons' 2016 Optima handle broke off, but it wasn't the large handle part. It was the smaller part that you screw in that broke. Got the part online within a week and used your video guide to easily replace it. Works great!

[@rollcam321]

Awesome. Nothing like saving a few bucks 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

[@CFlake01]

I have 16 Optima and the same thing happened to mine

[@PaperJedi]

Where did you buy the part at?

[@Lou-pk9cx]

Thank you so much for this, I thought it was going to be a whole lot more involved to replace part of the handle on my door, this makes it look so super easy!

[@rollcam321]

No worries. Thanks for watching God bless

[@unique_frenchie_vi]

Thank you so much for this video. If/when I get the door handlefor my 2015 Kia Optima I can do it myself. I pray that God gives me the patience. God bless.

[@rollcam321]

God will give you the patience. You already asked for it. God bless and thanks for watching.

[@petrol_prophet]

@3:30 lol I understand the assignment haha. but thanks bro, I had a tough time finding a video on how to do this

[@rollcam321]

Thanks so much for watching. Glad to help

[@Chwedziak]

Hello Roll Cam, great video, helped me out with door handle removal, can You tell me how to remove that silver/black decor on side of the car between front doors and little above the wheel? I am strugling with pulling that off.

[@johnkerlin8351]

I found out that KIA stands for Korea’s Imitation of an Automobile. My 2012 spends more time in the shop than it does on the road. Good video though. Thanks

[@rollcam321]

Lol never heard that one before. Thanks for watching

[@italwaysmatters1017]

Great video thank you but my door handle inside where my passenger sits (silver handle 2012 Kia Optima) and it's by the front of the window inside car on the door is literally popped out about an inch can you do a video on how to get to it and what to do to fix that?I would really appreciate it thank you so much for all you do.

[@rollcam321]

[@lockinglegacy9234]

Thank you!!!❤ i had the whole door panel off

[@VanndyC]

Hello, my gf passenger door broke as well. I tried to loosen the screw with a Phillips screw driver but the screw is on there good and I'm scared to strip the head. I've seen another video on a kia Sorento saying that the bolt is also a 10mm is that true? Thanks in advance.

[@rollcam321]

Hey sorry to hear that happened. I’m not sure the exact size, but if it is tight there are lubricants that can penetrate and possibly make it easier to come out. Hope you got it figured out quick

[@VanndyC]

@@rollcam321 thanks for the reply! It is a 10mm. Got it fixed. Thanks for the informative video!

[@rollcam321]

Awesome bro. Love it!!! It’s more rewarding than anything when others can fix it through the videos I share. God bless

[@josegregoriomoyaurpin3949]

Nice video, where you find the handle? I'm not from USA, in my country can't find, I search in amazon and ebay and not get any success result, you can help me please, is for a Kia Optima 2007

[@rollcam321]

Hey thanks for watching. Yes I’m sure we can find you a handle. If you can maybe call my office sometime. The number there is 321-421-7496 Just mention where you saw us and we will figure a way to get one to you.

[@datDward]

Where do you get your replacement parts?

[@rollcam321]

Jeff Bezzo lol

[@303ranger]

Is the removal this but reverse ?

[@rollcam321]

Yes the same process. Just take your time. You got this

[@mariawilliams20]

Thanks so much. You made it look very easy.

[@rollcam321]

Thanks for watching. I’m glad it helped

[@Vestraz]

where can i get the small piece of the handle?

[@danyelshawnee]

Where can I purchase a new door handle?

[@rollcam321]

It’s always best to try Amazon. It’s the cheapest but you’ll have to paint

[@ricardomunoz408]

Where can I order the back part of that door handle?

[@rollcam321]

Best bet is to go to the dealership for a quality part, but I know for a fact you can buy also on Amazon or eBay.

[@patrickwhelan5703]

This year after replacing 4 window regulators on a 2016 Kia Optima ($1000.00) and did the job myself....today my wife calls and said the grandkids were opening the rear door and the Handle fell off!! Can I expect the next 3 to come off within weeks? yes, it's a 4 door.

[@rollcam321]

Good question, but back door handle usually come off first because children yank on the handles when opening. Typically adults don’t yank on door handles as much, but let’s just say at least the other ones haven’t came off yet. Depending on your climate the plastic can get extremely hot or cold causing it to becoming more prone to snapping or breaking.

[@chosenelite762]

Dude no lie I have the same car, color, and problem oh and the handle replacement was the same as yours

[@rollcam321]

Such a common issue. Should be a recall. But they would lose their ass over this.

[@woodbutcher3887]

but what us poor dudes that do not look good like you, can we still change out the door handle? Thanks for the help, also how do I get a shop like yours?

[@rollcam321]

Hey Larry thanks for watching, and we all have that special charm to get the job done. But we have to remember to our down our purse hand 😂😂😂 Shops are easy to come by, just look for any storage units that would accommodate your interests.

[@zee-tee-emstaynpaid1604]

Good stuff mate lotta help

[@rollcam321]

No worries mate got bless glad it helped out.

[@gingerblair2997]

Awesome I’m glad I could help. Thanks for watching

[@Grimmeute]

Hey that’s all cars especially if you have kids. Always chewing mine out for just snatching at them and yanking. I’m having to replace mine from a few winters ago getting our famous freezing rains and broke my driver door handle on the truck trying to open the door.

[@rollcam321]

That’s so crazy you say that about the kids lol. I’m sure every parent knows the kids are the ones that test it up. 😂😂😂

[@ninajackson7187]

My door handle is fine but my clip fell off. I’m trying to find a replacement part.

[@rollcam321]

Which clip are you speaking of?

[@joshualopez1116]

I am also trying to find that part and still don’t have luck. The small clip the one that needs to be screwed on

[@rollcam321]

Yes it has been tough since the end of the world is here. I would try your local junkyard. If not you have to reach out further. Try LKQ

[@aicradiohead]

@@rollcam321it’s late for this guy but for anyone else I found the part on eBay pretty easily.

[@stan-oj7rz]

Hi my front door handle fell off the moment I got my car old parts replaced by Kia!! It’s gonna cost 💲 125.00 to replace by them!!

[@rollcam321]

You can do it yourself. I believe in you 💪🏾

Another reason I will not buy a Kia. This is bullshit parts that you are getting

[@rollcam321]

Ouch. I have a love hate relationship with Kia. But overall they are reliable. Just cheaply built.
