I was thinking about that just today actually. It could be possible that the glue/materials used are having an unexpected problem where they are gassing off and the air has no place to escape. If that was true though, it should be worse under extreme heat and mine developed back in the spring I think. I also would venture to guess that the vinyl expands and contracts slightly with the heat during the day and piercing it could cause it to rip on its own over time at the point where you pierced it.

Just speculation on my part. Still haven't had time myself to take the car to the dealer.
