First day - Two Questions

Don't know if it's due to the AZ heat - but does anyone have warping of the back cargo panels? I have a mild one in the middle of the seam on the right in the back interior cargo area and I cannot believe that one day parked at work did it - though I'm not sure I looked closely back there when I picked it up.Also - the radio face plate is loose - the bottom right corner is popped up a bit - any easy way to reseat that without having to take it in for warranty work?Thanks in advance - New Vibe owner -

I haven't had any warping in the back, but I'm not sure I understand where yours is warping in the back. Got a picture? Unless the dealer parked them undercover all the time, I'd think it spent some timme in the AZ sun before you bought it, so I wouldn't think one day in your sun would do that. I did have some sagging of the rear cargo deck (the part that lifts up to access the spare) from carrying a heavy thing back there, I guess the metal reinforcement underneath was bent a little, but I was able to bend it back into shape, Do you mean the silver trim around the radio, or the face plate of the radio itself? Got pics of these troubles?

Haven't had any warping, and mines rarely garaged in the also brutal Texas sun.If the silver trim part around the radio (that also contains the AC, hazard, etc buttons) is popped up, just press it down firmly on all four corners. The piece isn't held by any screws, and can be pulled out from underto get access behind it.If it feels loose when you push it back into place, though, you've got trouble.If you're not referring to that, please let us know more specifically!Hope you get these issues solved ASAP - it stinks to have a new car with something messed up already....
