Abstract: A vehicular door handle assembly for opening a vehicle door is provided and includes a chassis assembly having a forward end and a rearward end. The forward end includes an arm rotatable about an axis perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the chassis and the rearward end includes a rotatable bellcrank. The vehicular door handle assembly further includes a handle grip movable to an actuated position to open a vehicle door and the handle grip includes a forward end and a rearward end. The forward end includes a connection member to rigidly connect with the rotatable arm and the rearward end includes a plunger rotatably connected to the rear end door handle and is rotatably connected to the bellcrank.

Abstract: A vehicular door handle assembly for opening a vehicle door is provided and includes a door grip having a forward end and a rearward end, the door grip movable from a resting position where the vehicle door is latched to an actuated position where the vehicle door is unlatched. The assembly further includes a chassis assembly having a forward end and a rearward end. A rear end of the chassis assembly supports a bellcrank rotatably connected to the chassis and connected to the door grip. The bellcrank pivots between a resting position and an actuated position when the door handle is actuated. Further still, the assembly includes a moveable retaining element to retain the bellcrank in a serviceable position where the door grip can be connected to the bellcrank and to release the bellcrank to a functional position where the bellcrank rotates between the resting position and the actuated position.
