What's the deal with the vents?!
I had to have two replaced already because I put some of those air freshener sticks inside and they practically fell apart in my hands.
Now I take the clip-on freshener (with the oil bottle attached) off the far passenger side vent and the louver comes off with it!
Unbelievable!

That's just it. I never even touch them...
I clipped the air freshener sticks on ONCE and they shattered.
I pulled a self tensioning clip off one louver and it came completely free of the vent. What was I supposed to do, lube the vent and use reverse tweezers, LOL.

Believable, I've had the same broken vent for 4 years...
...before being shipped it sat through an ice storm judging by the (replaced on delivery) windshield that had a shovel taken to clearing it...small tabs shattered. Nice place for my future boost gauge. Good luck with your mirror aim switch and glovebox release handle and side indicators

One of my vents was broken from new.......................
the vent pieces are separated, I put them back together but they seem loose. I guess I could have it replaced under warranty.
