The chromed button on the end of my handbrake has started to flake and peel off in my hand, leaving a mottled, cheap white plastic look behind it... Has anyone else experienced this?

Minor, I know, but my car doesn't even have 10k on it yet... :(

That should be something covered under your warranty. I'd go see your dealer about it.

Yes! My poor chrome paint is about half flaked off. It makes me sad. I wish the button were made of aluminum.

I just noticed that on my car last week. Less than 12000 miles on mine.:'(

Bugs me... looks cheap. Sounds like a common issue - I imagine Honda figured that nobody bothers to use their handbrakes anyway, sooo.... :(

yep, mine is flaking bad. I don't think this is covered under warranty.

Mine is also flaky. Somebody should find out if we can get it replaced for free...other than me.

that should most definately be covered under hondas 3/36 bumper-bumper warrenty. That is not something that just 'wears out from use'
