The door handle mechanism breaks causing a lock-in/lock-out situation. There are many recent reports from rv owners that this IS occurring frequently and the replacements are breaking as well. The internal retraction mechanism breaks preventing the latch to retract. The specific model IS from rv designer (trimark) model# T507. there IS only one door on this model rv and an emergency window exit. This presents a safety issue for exit from the vehicle in case of an emergency. My wife was stuck in the vehicle and I was stuck outside. I crawled into the emergency exit and had to take the door apart to get out. here IS a link to a forum with several others with the same issue.
