Never mind you all. I still had some daylight left and decided to take off
the inner handle and door panel. I found the screw that holds the outer
handle on to be almost falling off. I tightened it on and all is back to
normal. Thanks anyway.

Nothing in the Bentley book mentioned a loose handle but the diagram gave me
a clue.

Subject: Sliding door handle

I noticed that my sliding door handle is not flush to the door. The handle
slides in toward the door and out about 1/2 inch or so. Is this normal? Or
should I take the inside panel off to check out if something inside is loose
needing attention?
