I sent email to "[email protected]". Amy responded from "[email protected]". Based on response(s) I believe the latter will suffice.

Had this same problem. Be aware that the plastic framing behind the handle may also break. GD is replacing that part and the handle. On mine, the framing broke near the top such that when pulling the handle the frame flexes so much the handle pulls away from the door edge. All the plastic on the door is a very cheap design. Sadly it’s Grand Designs reputation that takes the hit. At least GD and my dealer are working to make it right. But I am glad to know about the screw through the outer frame.

Same issue here. The retainer clip for handle broke then the handle broke as well. I don't understand Dometic? My previous TT had a Norcold fridge with a molded handle. also, I didn't have to open the freezer door and warm things up when adjusting temperature etcetera. Norcold was between fridge door and freezer.
Handles are cheap and I did get online and order their kit that comes with handles, screws, and two plastic clips.
Disappointed for sure as I likely had only opened the door no more than 40 times.Pierre & Tara

Following up: aside from the flimsy construction, the primary reason the handle breaks is that the door doesn’t unlatch. To fix this part of the problem our dealer put a screw through the frame just below the nub that the handle catches when the door closes. We’ve had no issues with the door not unlatching for two months while camping in Florida.
