Lower Rt side grill piece Missing

Post by debi5475 »

I went out to my car Saturday, Moonstone Vibey, 2005 AWD, and the RT side Lower Grill Piece is GONE! By the fog light. Would they cover that under the warentee? Vanished, like a hole there. Help. Partszoneonline has this, but what is a 35 option? And do I need things to keep it in, or can I just buy it and snap it back in there?Lower grill Outer Right - W/v35 option 2005 $20.96 $14.21My car is naked!

nope, missing part wouldn't be covered under warranty i don't think. but i'd prefer the naked look. i took mine out on my 03 and even sawed the middle piece off. makes it different.

Should be covered under warranty if your Vibe under 36K/39K miles. Call dealership, ask them and they'll give you answer. I like Hope idea but it's your Vibe and do anything you want...My two cent...

I do not think it would be covered under warranty, unless you can demonstrate to them that there was some manufacturing defect that caused it to fall off, which will be difficult to do. They can say that maybe a rock hit it and knocked it off and you didn't notice, or perhaps someone stole it. The same as if one day you noticed that your antenna was gone. I've seen partszoneonline mentioned in a couple of posts here, but I can't connect to that site. Is it just me or is the site generally unreachable? What's the full URL?
