not there. but peeling is an ugly and unfortunately common issue but its usually in places that gets rubbed/scraped routinely like **** and buttons. ie window roll down buttons / headlight lever / MMI main *** and power/volume *** / and glove box button


maybe something was wrapped or hung on there...maybe a power cord for GPS or radar detector... maybe a lanyard for keys or something was hung on wheel

Check and see what a replacement part costs. It may not be that expensive.

will be at the dealer tomorrow and see what they will tell me. I hope they will replace that under warranty, if not i'm thinking peel that all up and see how it looks like. The question is if that part is worth of replacing.
