WHEN I TRIED TO OPEN THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE WINDOW OF MY 2005 ACURA MDX SUV, SOMEHOW, THE WINDOW GLASS PUSHED THE DOOR OPEN TOO, AND DAMAGED THE OUTSIDE DOOR HANDLE. NOW, I CAN NOT OPEN THAT DOOR FROM OUTSIDE, AND I CAN NOT LOWER THE WINDOW GLASS MORE THAN 5 INCHES OTHERWISE THE DOOR WOULD BE PUSHED OPEN BY IT.
