Exploding windshield trim? Nice!

[alphapig]

So here's what I noticed today:





No, not the horrendous tail lights on the VW.

It seems this windshield interior trim piece decided to explode. Looks like ***.

How the crap did this happen? Think this would be covered by the warranty?

Discuss.

mine did that too. i just pushed it in with a credit card and it was good to go but you could take it to the stealership...

I have the same problem. I push it in sometimes with a cd case, but it tends to keep coming back out. If you brought it to the dealership they would for sure fix it.

but then you have to wait and all that so idk.

I don't really know about 'exploding', but this trim also popped out on my windshield about a week after I purchased my AC. I just pushed it back in with a card and it hasn't popped back out since.

I don't know, this thing sticks out pretty damn far!

I hope the dealer will fix it though. It's a little annoying and I don't wanna poke at it.

Hyundai wouldn't have this problem. They are made of pure plastic, I hear. Even the seats.

That's the word on the street

Hyundai wouldn't have this problem.

Your probably right, you would have much larger problems like transmission and powertrain issues!

That's odd-- any ideas if it happened by itself, or perhaps it was from running the defogger on high?

Mine was like that when I bought the car new. The dealer just pulled it off. I have gotten weather stripping from Home Depot and stuffed that in there. Any Idea what it is for?
