    I've noticed the start of wear on the upper left corner of the center arm rest. It's as though the "fabric" is
    balding. I've had this car since March and have never experienced this with any other car I've owned at only 11,000 miles. Anyone else experiencing the same? I assume it's covered under warranty but it'll be a hassle to find the time to bring it in to the dealer.

    Thanks for the heads up on the arm rest cover. Will definitely look into it. It's a shame I have to incur an additional expense to compensate for the poor quality of their fabric. Makes me wonder what other surprises are in store down the road with this vehicle.
