The driver's door interior handle is peeling like banna!

Yeah, that plastic thing coated with the chromy stuff is peeling like a banna... Ayyone has that ?....


I am planning to get it to the dealer to be replaced under warrentty. If he claims that it is not covered cause of normal wear and tear, so why the passenger door' interior is like-new?!!

in addition,
The EVAP purge valve unit should be replaced.
The 2 Dashboard rattles has to be fixed.
Center storage box has to be fixed.

Damn how often do you use the handle. Mine are still looking like new. I have had my car for roughly 14 mo. Keep raising hell with the dealer to have it fixed. They'll give in eventually.

I guess from factory it had a very rough finish that led to the peeling. The other one was smooth like silk so it did not peel.

Anyways, I just scheduled an 8:30-9:00 tommorrow for a road test with a service rep and hopefully he wont bitch to much about the door handle.

I would assume every time he opens the door.

Usually you would use the driver's door more often than the passenger door. But they should replace it anyway.
