The metallic covering on both front inner door handles has rippled and started peeling. The metallic sheet covering both handles is very sharp and has caused me to slice my hands/fingers multiple times as I attempt to open the door. It's sturdy enough that it is difficult to just peel off, so I am constantly being cut by my handles and am worried this may soon happen to my passenger(s) and/or children.
