What owners wrote

I have a 2016 dodge charger sxt. The cars door panels on all doors have began to peel back. This is causing the window framing to be exposed and causing the window to not be protected. This has become a national problem with these dodge chargers. There is no warranty out that can cover these issues. These are newer model cars that have defects that should be fixed. A recall needs to be put in place so that the people who are suffering from this issue can get it replaced with no cost or at a very low cost.
