Tappan Oven Door Handle Comes Off

Tappan oven door handle comes off

I have a Tappan TGF657BFB5 gas range. When I pull on the oven door handle it sometimes comes off. The bar pulls out of the supports on the end. Is there any way to correct this problem without replacing the oven door?

Hi,

I doubt the whole door needs to be replaced, I doubt a whole door is even available as an assembly. But the handle end caps may be loose/worn/cracked and need to be replaced to hold the handle bar tight and not come apart. Unfortunately, it looks like the handle is only available as an assembly which includes the bar and end caps together (see the link below).
