Default Faded dash trim

Anyone know if faded dash trim would be covered by the basic warranty? I have a couple spots that I'd like to get taked care of. Thanks

Do you mean the carbon fiber trim? I had some peeling on mine and it was replaced under warranty.

You should look into a windshield shade to protect the dash. Carcraft has some nice ones.

Gestalt Language Protocol may sound suspiciously like something the Secret Service uses to decode enemy communications, but really, it is simply a set of ideas about how to communicate with other individuals in a nonthreatening manner so that people within the group feel like they can really share and learn.

1. Speak from your own experiences rather than giving advice or opinions
2. Use “I” statements instead of “You” statements
3. Speak in the past tense
4. Avoid the “Should”, “Would”, “Could”
5. Do not speak in generalities, be specific

Yeah, looks like I missed it when I bought the car. Its at the end of the passenger side and not terrible but hoping they will fix it to keep from getting worse. Thanks

I recently purchased it. I keep it under a car cover when parked at home.

Got it. Thanks, that definitely came out wrong after re-reading it. I had just ordered the dash shade for my car when I saw this post.

I don't see why they wouldn't replace it since it's still under warranty. When researching, I found several other threads where others had the same issue and the dealership replaced the panel. Good luck.
