There have been a few posts about having the drivers door switch panel replaced under warranty when the rubbery coating peels away. I had no luck with my local dealer who said that it could be down to hand cream etc rather than a manufacturing defect.
However I discovered that the part price is only �8.50 so changed it myself. The door panel comes off fairly easily (only took me about 2 minutes the second time I tried it ) and the switch panel is then unscrewed/unclipped from inside. The switch buttons just clip into the new panel and this clips back into the door.
If it's annoying you - the whole job can be done in under half an hour for less than �10.
Part no is 7L6 867 158 D plus your colur code.
