I looked at my handles and I've got the same issue. I can see it's cracking. It hasn't come apart yet, but I'm sure it will soon. I'll have to book it in at the dealer FML

Just checked mine, and getting the same issue.
I felt it this morning when opening the door, and holding it from swinging to far. I've been pretty gentle with the car, I've had it for 12 months, bought from brand new, and only done 16,000 ks. The car doesn't even have any external scratches yet, just this. I'm sure that i'll have a scratch now I've said that.

So, first scratch in the Passat this morning at swimming. Small dent and scratch in passenger right hand door. Someone opened their door onto mine while we were inside. No note.
Fork you inconsiderate a'hole.

Happened to ours within the first WEEKS of owning it. Front left quarter panel above the wheel right on the crease and took some paint too! DAMN IT! Why can't people just respect each other and teach their kids how to get in and out of cars? I remember learning to hold the door and make sure it didn't hit the other car when I was a kid.
Although I think ours must have been a shopping trolly.
The next week after than a truck going the other way took a chip out of the bonnet.
I'll get both fixed professionally when I have a spare $400 - $500!

I had exactly the same thing happen to mine, it was fixed under warranty no questions asked, it took a few days to get the part from Melbourne up to Sydney though.
Did the replace the entire door trim or just the plastic bits? The reason I ask is that I hit a kangaroo within the first few weeks of owning mine. Whilst everything was sorted/replaced with factory parts form an authorised repairer, the door trim on the left side was removed when they replaced the outer door skin, I am just hoping that they wont make me go back to my insurer or something for "damage to the door trim" (which of course it's not from the accident).
