Should be covered under warranty! Pay a visit to your local Ford dealer

Yes mine did & I just peeled the chrome off that one, it doesn’t bother me enough to replace it though.

Mine peeled as well. It never occurred to me to make a warranty claim.

Our 2020 escape did this at about 3 years old. Ford did a recall but I just peeled the fake chrome crap off.

Maybe related to solvents. When the pandemic hit, my commuter car was a 4 year old Prius. Every time I was in public, like at the grocery store, I would use alcohol hand sanitizer before touching anything in my car, which meant all the plastic bits were in frequent contact with ethanol and methanol, which are really good solvents.

Fast forward 2 years and all the plastic bits in the interior looked like trash. Even the pleather steering wheel was cracking and the surface layer was flaking off. 6 year old interior looked like it was 15-20 years old.
