Interioir Scratches

Post by kupecky »

I have a 2010 GT and I find the interior to scratch super easy. This is happening mostly around the passenger door or glove box... usually from people in the passenger seat. I've tried Armor All protective wipes but that doesn't seem to help. Has anyone else experienced this?Thanks

I scratched the center console on our 09 Vibe, but that was because the ring on my left hand hit it.

I posted something about this awhile ago.. no fix that I could find.. Be careful with the plastic around the ignition because that is $400 worth of cheap plastic .. (had mine replaced under warranty).

Plastic scratches easily. Just be careful with it. Aim a little before you attempt to shove the key into the lock. You can stick your index finger over the tip of the key to feel where it should go. Not too tough to do and once you get use to it... it becomes easy and you get no scratches around the ignition, or doors if you ever have to use the key to unlock. Heavy metal bling is death to the plastics on the doors and any other plastic that comes within range. As a matter of fact, bling can scratch just about every surface, from paint to glass. Too bad they don't have some kind of rubber or durable vinyl you can use to cover the interior plastic.
