if you go under there, you will see that the cable just leverages near the hinge point. if you can lock that part down, the assembly will work again. so for me, the fix was like $0.25 and 15-20min trying to figure it out.
I wish it was that easy. The actual plastic part broke completely off where the wire connects to the release. Just ripped the center of the release out. Big gaping hole now. Need to replace the entire plastic release handle portion.
