About Door Handle

The Patriot Jeep door handle is a vital component of the car door, enabling the person to get into the car.

A car door will have both an internal and an external handle. Most car door handles are made of strong plastic or metal. The Patriot Jeep door handle is an exterior door handle, fixed to the inner door frame with the aid of bolts, which are hidden by the inner door panel.

Door handles work with a pulling and latch mechanism, and are usually attached to this mechanism by screws. The door handle mechanism consists of a latch, a toothed wheel and a rotor which are contained behind the door panel. When the door handle is opened this causes the latch to release. The person can apply pressure to the Patriot Jeep door handle and, holding on to the handle, pull the door open (aided by the hinged mechanism of the door).  The person can also push the door shut with the help of the Patriot Jeep door handle. 

There are many different shapes, styles, materials, finishes and colours when it comes to car door handles. Purchasing a Patriot Jeep door handle will ensure you get the right part, designed to fit the make and model of your vehicle. There are also various car door handle accessories, which, like the door handles, are usually specific to car make and model, and not an option for all, such as a handle guard and handle cover.

If the door handle isn't functioning properly, sticking, jamming or refusing to open, it's a sign that you may need to replace the Patriot Jeep door handle with one that is compatible with your vehicle.

Jeep trivia

  • It's not something that you'll be able to find to buy, but there was a prototype of a Jeep made in 1945 that could fly. The vehicle was called the Hafner Rotabuggy, and it had blades like a helicopter.
  • In the action film, Furious 7, a customised Jeep dropped out of an aeroplane, along with some of the other classic cars used in the film. Usually, this kind of stunt would use only the chassis of the cars, but for F7, they just dropped the fully built cars from the cargo plane and hoped for the best.
  • The Jeep is the only vehicle to have won an American Purple Heart medal. The award was given after a Jeep was the first US presence on the beach at Guadalcanal. The Jeep was only slightly damaged, with some bullet holes in the windscreen, but General Eisenhower called the Jeep one of "the three tools that won the war."
  • There's a whole sport called Jeeping, and it's been running since 1953. It's a trek that usually takes place along the Rubicon Trail in the US, and 'Jeep Jamborees' are now so popular that Jeep even attends the events, often bringing new concept vehicles to show off.
  • Jeep has had eight different owners to date. The current owners of the iconic brand are Fiat-Chrysler, but the name has been owned by recognisable names like Renault and AMC.
