Default broken door handle. should warranty cover this?

My brothers girlfriend has a ford streetka (don't know why ) and the door handle on the passanger door does not work on the outside, only on the inside.

There is no sign of physical damage, so it is not accidental damage or vandilism, it is just a case of a fault with the car. The car is still in warranty which was supplied when the car was bought.

It was bought as a used car from a ford dealership with a 12 month warranty. Should the warranty cover this sort of problem? The ford dealership wont do anything about it???

Yes I think it should cover it - I would take it to another dealer (unless the 1 year warrenty is with the dealer that bought it from) as I think that they are trying it on.

It's usually the over zealous handle check that people do when they lock the car that breaks them after a while. Easily fixed they should do it no problem
