In this video, see how to deal with a broken handle on a Seat Ibiza version 6J: apparently, this is a fairly common problem with these cars, not because the mechanism breaks, but because the handle gets stuck. Essentially, the small pin that holds the handle in place is too weak and breaks, leaving the handle loose, so it cannot be opened from the inside.

Our YouTuber demonstrates this very well. To open it - in an emergency, of course, it will still need to be replaced - push it forward and slide it so that by rotating on itself, it can still open.
