An acceleration sensor assembly preventing opening of a door in response to an unusual force acting on a moving vehicle includes a stepped pin integrated with an amount of weight, at least two springs encapsulating the stepped pin while allowing free movement of the stepped pin, and a case cover with an opening at one side, the case cover enclosing the stepped pin and the at least two springs, where the unusual force is configured to cause acceleration of a vehicle door handle and trigger compression of the at least two springs, movement of the stepped pin out of the case cover, rotation of a bell crank due to pulling of the vehicle door handle, and insertion of the stepped pin into the bell crank to stop its further rotation thereby preventing opening of the door.
