Has anyone experienced interior peeling in your ml?

I have just bought a used ML and my ML has flakes coming out from the plastic panel by the trunk area ( like the skin has been sun burnt ), and I am wondering if this is a common problem like the SLK models. Thanks a bunch.

I have NOT experienced this. Is it possible to condition the plastic, maybe using something like 303 protectant or Vinylex. This may help control the situation.

The center armrest is beginning to bubble. The door handles, the plastic insert where you take out is beginning to peel, rub, something to that extent.

armrest bubble, yes; peeling interior, no.

my door panel bubbled and I purchased a new one from a junk yard so it worked out. The dealer wanted something like 400 and I got it from the junkyard for 100.00
