“The chrome metal covering the inside door handles of my Yukon has cracked and is separating from the handles. The sharp chrome metal injured my wife by slicing her finger as she exited the vehicle. My daughter previously ran her foot on the back seat handle and cut her foot. This is an obvious material defect and should be replaced. This is dangerous.”
