I've noticed mine cracked open. I just assumed I bumped the handle while opening/closing the door.

I had this problem in my 08 unlimited.

The secret to removing the crank window cranks is to use a rag / t-shirt sleeve / sock

Get the rag behind the crank (hooked around the crank at the base) and start pulling it back and forth. There is a little metal ring in there that Will pop off when you rub it just the right way.

They do sell a tool to do this, but I have always used a t-shirt sleeve.

Hey, Red how do I reposition it? I thought maybe the handle just pops off, but i don't want to break it.
It has a little spring clip that holds it on. Takes a specific tool if you wanna do it easy. Doesn't cost much at all.
