## Narrative
The aluminum trim piece around gear shift has come up from the plastic underneath.  It is the front of the trim next to where there is a charging outlet and small item storage.  When removing my phone one day, I caught my finger on the raised (delaminated) section of the aluminum and sliced my finger open.  I did not need stitches, but did use butterfly closures while it healed.  I removed the part that was sticking up so now the sharp edge is closer to the exposed plastic and not as much of a hazard.  A quick online search shows this is a fairly common problem with many people reporting a cut finger/hand.
