Default Yes, we're having the same problem...

I thought it might be because of Julie's high heels but apparently the rubber is crap... I guess I should contact my dealer (Crown in Greensboro)... are your vertical ribs tearing ?

Default Clair said that they have had a few come back. I thought the same thing but mine have crumbled on

the passenger side and I have had maybe 10 passengers all winter. I never took that one out to clean either. AND the color is fading out of the TT. It just happened in the past week before the Falling Water Trip. I would call your dealer and ask them. Clair said for me to send them back and list them as "Defective".

Default So you didn't see them Jay? I got black with red and they REALLY look nice...

...way better than I expected. It turns out Brad does have good taste.

I'll post a picture when I get a chance.

he said if Julie would drive over there and show him, he'll take care of it and order some more. But will they crumble as well ?

Default Could just be the Passenger side? I would say that if the new ones crumble then they will replace

those too. Mats of this price and "AUDI Quality" should last for years. Or as long as some Cheaper ones would. I would say that they are a new item and they may have had a bad composite mix of the rubber compound during the injections process and this could be an isolated occurrence of like 100-500 mats?
