Just took delivery and immediately noticed two issues with the driver seat. Does anybody else have the same?

The first is the plastic molding around the switches to a just a seat, where there is a gap between the two moldings. It appears the molding that says "Airbag" is not clipped in place or the clip is broken.

Next is the stitching for the materials in the strip down the center of the seat. Towards the end it's all bunched up and bubbling up.

The gap on the side is normal and it allows movement for the adjustment of the seat. The stitching looks like a defect though.

If you watch theMonroe tear down video where they talked about the interior they called that out. It is a biproduct of how they are connected to the frame and the gap changes based on some of the seat movements.

Wow thank you. I got two thirds into the video and didn't get to finish it. So that explains that.
