Consumer Description
THE INTERIOR DOOR HANDLES OF MY 2003 HYUNDAI SONATA WENT UNDER A RECALL IN JULY 2009 BECAUSE THE CHROME PLATING WAS SPLITTING OPEN AND CUTTING PEOPLE. THREE DOOR HANDLES WERE REPLACED AND ONE WAS REWRAPPED TO FIX THE PROBLEM. IN SEPTEMBER 2013 THE SAME ISSUE AROSE WHEN MY WIFE AND BROTHER-IN-LAW CUT THEIR HANDS ON THE DOOR HANDLES, WHOSE CHROME PLATING HAS AGAIN BEGUN TO SPLIT. HYUNDAI HAS SAID THAT NO REPAIRS WILL BE MADE, SINCE THE HANDLES WERE TREATED AND THE 2009 RECALL HAS FINISHED. *TR
