“Purchased new and own a 2007 chevy suburban. We have cut our hands several times opening the driver side door when pulling the inside door handle inward. This has been caused by the peeling fake chrome plastic that covers the inside handle. This peeling fake chrome creates a sharp edge as it peels off that is directly positioned to rub across one's fingers as you pull the door handle in toward you to open the door.”
NHTSA complaint #10340740, filed 2010-06, 17,000 miles“The passenger side rear door, interior door handle has peeled. My son lacerated his finger on the peeling chrome plating. This seems to be a common problem among GM owners and an obvious poor manufacture in several models with a definite need to replace all the interior handles. This is a hazard that has been brought to your attention on other models and I am unable to see a resolution. It appears all the investigations have been closed.”
NHTSA complaint #10438836, filed 2011-12, 75,000 miles“Interior chrome door handles peeling. Peeling chrome extremely sharp. I've had my fingers pricked by the peeling chrome and my wife got a small cut on her finger from it. Very sharp.”
NHTSA complaint #10667164, filed 2014-12, 113,000 miles“Chrome peeling off of inside door handles has become hazardous, which cut 2 of my fingers. I'm now afraid to open my door w/o getting cut. Please consider this as a recall item.”
NHTSA complaint #10520116, filed 2013-06, 170,000 miles“My two children and I where coming home from a wrestling tournament traveling on a highway doing about 65 MPH. They were in the back seat. We all had seat belts on. I had a epileptic seizure and they said my foot hit the throttle so we might have be going faster when we hit. I last recall doing the speed limit. I went to the left and missed a power pole but hit the railroad tracks(these tracks are banked up on dirt and rock). Which caused the suburban to some how roll 4 to 5 times down the tracks.we ended up on the other side of the tracks on our rims. Every tire was blown. …”
