Consumer Description

INSIDE DOOR HANDLE, DRIVER'S SIDE. THE CHROME COATING STARTED TO PEEL OFF FROM THE INSIDE, BOTTOM EDGE OF THE HANDLE. IT IS A THICK METAL-LIKE COATING, THAT SEPARATED FROM THE HANDLE APPROXIMATELY 1/16". ONE DAY I OPENED THE DOOR WHILE I WAS SITTING INSIDE THE CAR, AND THE TIP OF MY LEFT FOREFINGER (FINGERPRINT AREA) WAS CUT BY THIS CHROME COATING. THE CUT WAS ABOUT 1/2" LONG AND ABOUT 1/32" DEEP, ENOUGH TO MAKE ME BLEED FOR ABOUT 10 MINS. *TR
