Looking for Replacement Garage Door Latch for 2017 R-Pod 182-G
Updated 10/22/2025 | Published 09/18/2025
Question:
I am struggling with a specific repair right now. 2017 RPod 182-G. The garage does not always stay closed and the left t-handle is worn out. Id like to replace both T-handle mechanisms. These squeeze the door closed, not just a 90-deg rotation. I don’t see this “action” in the t-handle video. Can e-trailer help me here? I can send Pics/mini video if it will help. ideally also my luggage compartment locks to be keyed alike 2 of 3 compartment cam locks are also worn out. Thank you!

Hey Roger, do you have a latch kit like the part # PLR258-002 that that folds in on the door and pushes in at the same time? This style of latch can do that but I may not be totally understanding your setup. If you wanted to email me back with the video/pictures I can take a closer look at it.

Hey Roger, what did you find out after checking your latch setup against the cam-action latch kit? Once you had a closer look, did that style seem like it would match the way your garage door closes? Your update could make it easier for others working on similar RPod repairs.
