DECOUPLED HANDLE SWITCH

摘要

A handle assembly for actuating a latch of a vehicle door of a vehicle includes a grip assembly with a grip disposed between opposing mounts. The mounts are disposed adjacent a door panel of a vehicle door and space the grip from the door panel. A mounting member is disposed upon an opposite side of the door panel from the grip assembly to secure the grip assembly to the door panel. An indicator is separate from the grip assembly and is disposed at an opposite side of the door panel from the grip assembly. The indicator identifies an intent to actuate the door of the vehicle from an operator clasping the grip assembly. The indicator signals the latch to disengage the vehicle door from the vehicle upon identifying an intent to actuate the door.
