2013 Justa HT Door Handle Broken

Hey Guys,

I was wondering if this was a common issue during the winter/cold weather:
My door handle's (cord in side) broke, or over stretched. Therefore I'm not able to squeeze it to open. I have to roll down my window via key fob and open from the inside =/.

I'm getting it fixed at my dealership this Wednesday, but I'm just wondering if anyone has experience this issue before?

Has not happened to my 2013. When it was below zero I had an issue with the door frozen stuck and when I pulled on the door handle it felt like it was going to break off so I just kept banging on the doorframe to help get it unstuck and then pulled the door handle normally to open it. I think if I would've just kept yanking on the handle when it was still frozen it probably would've broken off.
