gauge trim coming off? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Okay so I noticed today that my gauge trim around the speedometer is popping apart? I tried pushing it back in and it didn't work, just curious if anyone else has had this problem? I've never removed it and I purchased my car brand new....so im curious if I should take it off and see if I can fix a clip or something or go to dealer for warranty?

Definitely take it to the dealer. That is what your warranty is for.

There was a thread in the Camaro issues/warranty subforum. Have you ever removed yours to paint, etc?

Several are like this from the factory. Another poster just had his at the dealer for this, and they told him it's normal. Unless it's loose, I personally wouldn't address it.

My 2012 looks like your pic. Mine is not loose. It just sticks out a little bit. This mass-produced stuff will have variances like this.

Have this problem with mine. When I took it to the dealer they said it was normal and sure enough 90% of the new cars on the lot were like this. The bezel is tight so I am leaving mine alone. I don't want them to attempt to fix it only to make is worse, because really the only fix would be to replace the whole dash.
