I own a 96 Chevy Lumina van and noticed that a lot of people have had problems with the door handles breaking... I have replaced all 3 at one time or another... Sometimes it's not the handle itself that breaks but the linkage that comes unattached... Take off the inside door panel and you can see if that is the case... Stick your hand in the hole (hope you don't have big hands) and pull on the inside door handle while reinserting the the rod back into the hole where the outside and inside linkages hook up... It may take a few trys as you have to force on the rod in order for it to slip back into the hole... If you can't manage it, then you will have to loosen off the nuts that attach the outside handle, which is a bit of a chore.
