Interior door handles flaking on '03 Pilot - Click HERE for Original Thread
TN Pilot
We have an '03 Pilot with 70K miles. Recently the silver finish has been peeling off the interior door handles. Has anyone else had this issue?

We've had very few issues so far... just some AC probs and a little road noise. Overall, a very good experience. The DVD player with wireless headphones that allow the adults to listen to normal radio whilst the kids are watching videos in the back is fantastic.

Mine is doing it - driver's side. I had to peel some of it off because I cut my finger on it!

'03 with 106k on it and I've had the flaking of the handle as well. Plastic handles stink.

Mine did it on my '04, got it fixed while still under warranty.

I had this issue w/ my 03 =( Honda charged <$80 dollars for replacement of both driver and passenger interior handles. I nearly cut myself as well.

Guys this is happening to my 03 HP car too exactly on the two rear doors.

Basically, i need to change them before it get my son or wife injured.

Is there any where i can buy it offshelves and possibly to install it myself?

I just noticed the rear door handles peeling on my 03 Pilot after reading a thread about it. No cuts so far.

Yea the handles totally suck on these vehicles. Other than that, I love my Pilot!! I cut my fingers several times on the door handles so for the mean time i just wrapped them up in black electrical tape..lol Just for u guys who are like me and cant afford to replace that nuisance part right now.
