The Problem
It is common for the Keyless Go door handle rubber button to wear spoiling the look of the door handle.
It is very common for the small black rubber Keyless-Go button on these vehicles door handles to fail. The poor-quality OEM rubber is not suited to the wear / varying temperatures that this part experiences.
The part is prone to melting in the summer and hardening in the colder months. Inevitably the part starts to deteriorate- leaving sticky residue on your hands when pressing the button or wearing away completely, it is common for the center section to be missing completely.
This button also provides a sealing function; failure of the part can cause issues with water ingress in to the handle.
Previously this necessitated replacement of the entire door handle; not only is this expensive and very time consuming to fit it would also ultimately fail again.
Symptoms of the fault
Keyless Go door handle rubber button- Torn, Missing, Melted, Deteriorated, Sticky, Melted, Melting, Gummy, Disintegrating. Water ingress in to handle from failed button seal. It is common for the center section of the button to be worn away and missing completely.
