exterior door handle button

The button on my driver's door exterior handle pops out when I close the door. Is there a retainer clip or something that has fallen out or do I need to replace the door handle?

Time for a new handle. It's made of pot metal and part of it is broken off. If it pops out all together, you can open the door my stuffing your index finger in the hole and pushing on the tab in there.

I was afraid that was going to be the case. Thanks.

Or find a guy that shaved his handles. I have two extra handles, but you're too far away for them.

If you would quit bouncing around so hard, you wouldn't have that problem. Next the mirrors are going to fall off!
