Hatch handle snapped off....need help :(
Just went to open my hatch and it just snaps off in my hand...
Had to zip tie it in the good ole Wal-Mart parking lot.
Read this was a common thing and there was a warranty extension for it. Anybody know anything about this?? Thanks

This has been covered again and again and then some.
Toyota offered a warranty enhancement, extending the warranty on the hatch garnish from 7 years from the date of purchase, or one year from their announcement (whichever came first), which was on March 30, 2013.
It is out of the warranty period. Either buy a new one on your own dime, or keep it fastened with your ziptie method. Either way, the hatch should not be opened by placing any force on the garnish.
