My e has developed a fault on the passenger door - the outside handle does not retract at all, or only partially, when it should. This includes when the car is locked, or when it is being driven.
I have it booked in to the dealer next week to be fixed. Will update here if there's anything to say!

I have a similar issue with the drivers side, where it doesn't always retract flush. Re-locking usually sorts it out but not always.

I think this may be connected to the problem I had two weeks ago (see separate thread), may be a weak point?

Same diagnosis as Onthecharge. Dealer has ordered a new handle.

I had the same. Both handles not retracting. Dealer fitted new handles under warranty.

I had this exact problem two weeks ago.

Booked in with the dealership but then a few days before it started working again and hasn't been a problem since. Very strange

Just to close off my original post in this thread, the new handle was fitted yesterday. All back to square one, hopefully!

Hi all, same problem on our car, passenger side door handle not fully retracting (how close it gets varies). Those that have had a new handle fitted, has that stopped it recurring?

Yes, all done under warranty, and so far no recurrence of the problem.
