rear hatch handle melting?

[Pitbull410]

anyone else have problems with the rubber on the outside handle of the rear hatch? After this summer heat , the rubber has literally melted and dripped off of the handle. Anytime i go to open the rear hatch now it sticks to my fingers... wondering if this was common or not...

Very common and way easy to replace.

Thanks bud Going to see if this is something covered by Toyota since it seems to be a manufacturer defect. Let everyone know what I find..
