Cause the bowden cables connecting the outer door handles to the latch assemblies may get water inside the outer sheath of the cable. If the temperature drops below freezing before the water dries out, the water may freeze, preventing the movement of the inner cable. Correction as of 7/02 production, the sealing of the outer cable from water penetration was improved by modifying the rubber nipple on the handle end of the cable. In case of a customer complaint, replace the outer door handles with the improved parts. Parts information procedure replace the front door handle assemblies per repair instructions, section 51 21 200. Replace the rear door handle assemblies per repair instructions, section 51 22 200.
