2006 Chevrolet HHR LT Logo
Alfonso R Aguilera Posted on Sep 30, 2013

My 2006 Chev HHR LT when I got to open a gate and returned back to drove a short distance to park. I turned off engine grabbed hold of door handle and there was no resistance to handle. The door would not open I rolled the window down and open the door from the outside. I then checked the other doors and they all have the same problem. The doors can be opened from the outside but not inside.

SOURCE: Hi there, My 95 Chev Suburban

Inside of the door there are rods that connect from your inside door handles to the the latch mechanism. The rods are connected to both the handle and the latch with plastic clips. To check you will have to remove the door panels and see if the rods are attached or if the plastic clips are broken or missing. The clips are a very cheap part to replace. Any local auto parts store should have them in stock. Also very easy to install. Hope this helps. Happy motoring.

My 2006 HHR has check engine light constantly on and now has liquid dripping from the right underside of the dashboard. Is this related or seperate issues? Also, the inside door handle just broke off in...

does the liquid have color if perfectly clear its condensate from AC evaporator, the drain may be blocked and need clearing. A red/orange color indicates the heater core or lines to it are leaking Dex-cool. As for the CEL have a auto parts store, O'reilys, AutoZone scan for codes and get back to me. The door handle will take some surgery especially on getting the interior panel off, hidden screws, wire connectors. Find a reference sheet for that

How do you replace a rear turn signal bulb on chevy hhr

There is an access panel on the inside rear sides by the lift gate. They pop out giving you access to the bulbs. I recommend replacing both at the same time since they seem to "blow" within a few days of each other.
