Passenger Seat Falling Apart

Now that I have your attention...I do have an issue with my passenger seat and was curious if anyone else may have it. No one sits there except for maybe two times a week when I drive my team for lunch. I never go over there unless cleaning, so I really don't know when it happened. I was vacuuming the other day and noticed that the plastic housing on the side of the seat next to the door was separated and coming apart. I thought it could simply be snapped back together, but it can't be. Looks like another item added to the warranty list the next time I take the car in. Anyone else have this happen?

I've had the same thing happen except it was on the driver's side. Have not been able to take the car in since I noticed the issue, however.

I can tell everyone that I had the issue on both front seats. Took it in on Monday and they were able to snap them back together and all is well under warranty.

Seems like a common problem. I tried over and over to snap back together, but it simply just didn't work on mine. Curious if they'll be able to or have to replace.

I would of laughed at the tech if they told me it was my fault. Glad they covered it.
