My car was in quality control for that same part and get this they shipped it accidentily without it and they had to expedite the part to the dealership and finalize the quality control inspection at the dealership. I complained so much after 8 weeks sitting in quality control that someone shipped it accidentily. I haven'thad any problems in the 4 days I've had the car for now.

My dealer called me yesterday to check out their 1LT CGM, car had 7 miles on it and both plastic covers were popped off. I guess its normal.

Look to see if whatever it uses for retention is broken or damaged.

You probably need the dealer to order you a new set of them.

if you decide to 'fix' thus yourself you may be affecting the side curtin airbag, let the dealer do it.

Let's hope this isn't a trend..

I am expecting to take delivery of #8575 on Wednesday. I will keep a close eye on both inside windshield pillar covers.

My driver's side A-pillar cover pops loose occasionally. I just snap it back in. It has happened twice in a week. Next time I'll pull it off and see what isn't working.

aberg · 06-07-2009, 07:06 AM

So far no problem with mine. I've had mine since Wed. but have not driven it alot instead i've had to work.

There is no air bag on the windshield pillars.
