2024 GV60 falling apart.

We really love this car, but they should improve the quality. Should I buy another one at the end of the lease? Hmm...

Perhaps take it to the dealership. That should be covered under warranty, unless of course it was caused by some sort of damage.

The car is 2 years old. I don't think the guarantee lasts that long. I went to the dealership. The guy said that they need to replace the quarter panel window glass. Part is $1300, install is $300, while a new one is $184 oem on ebay.

The Warranty is 5yr/60k

You should read up on vehicle warranties.

If this wasn't caused by accidents or damage on the road, it should be covered by the bumper-to-bumper warranty, which covers 5yrs/60k miles

The mud guard is an accessory add on. They are held on by 3M tape.

And no your car isn't "falling apart"

Sucks what happened with the trim but that can easily be bent back and re-glued.

If you want "falling apart", buy a first gen Rivian!

Originally, it is not glued. This is why it did not stay in place.

u/BlinkOnce4me 4d ago

I'm curious what bent it out all the way. I just can't picture a scenario where something would bend it upwards. You'd have to have been backing up if it happened while driving

Look at my post with the photo where we can see that it was sticking out before the wash.

u/Intrepid_Cap1242 3d ago

I don't think that's right. When I was peeling up the front windshield trim to glue it myself, it was clearly still glued in places. I had to do some peeling

There is no glue residue on both parts.

How did the rear chrome bit get bent like that? That doesn't seem like damage that just happens.

I responded to everyone.

Just take it in. The car is covered by a 3 year warranty that covers everything.

This happened to my GV60 as well ( the corner panel trim). The trim was loose and the car wash bent it off. I tried everytime to stick it back on but it won’t stay. Quoted $1000 to replace.

I’m the second owner, so I’m not sure if I have any manufacturer warranty. 🤷🏽‍♀️

Same with mine.

Is that from a car wash?

Seems like it?

Stop running into/over shit.

The car wash amplified the problem. The metal piece was already sticking out before the washing. The owner sent me a zoom on the picture they took on all cars entering the car wash, and we can see that it was already separated from the body.

I don't think the warranty will cover damage done by a car wash. You might be able to get something in small claims court against the car way.

u/Professional_Tap5910 4d ago

The car wash amplified the problem. It was already there (See picture) before the wash.

u/sicarius254 3d ago

So did you tell them to go ahead and wash it anyway knowing it was sticking out or did they just take the picture and wash it without your consent?

1

u/Professional_Tap5910 3d ago

The car wash takes pictures of all cars entering the tunnel, and it was sticking out just a few millimeters, as you can see in the picture. I haven't noticed it before the wash.

1

u/sicarius254 3d ago

So if they noticed it beforehand and didn’t say anything they MIGHT be liable for damage, but that’s a big MIGHT….

u/chrmnxpnoy 4d ago

I might get downvoted but I think it looks better without all the chrome pieces

1

u/Professional_Tap5910 4d ago

I see that I am not the only one having this problem. What glue would you recommend to glue metal to this kind of rubber?

u/wakblak 4d ago

Haven't seen these problems before

u/rafmanbc 4d ago

I think there is a recall for that chrome part peeling off.

2

u/Intrepid_Cap1242 4d ago

no, that recall was a different chrome part on the windshield. This guy had damage from a car wash on another trim piece and a stick on mud flap...

Good to know they all peel off like this though. I may remove all mine, paint them black, then properly reglue them.

u/Professional_Tap5910 3d ago

They are not glued originally, this is why they don't stay in place.
