View Full Version : Bootlid plastics - can someone please check...

I've noticed, and so has a colleague that the plastic trim surrounding the inside face of the rear screen has stress marks showing through.

The photo attached shows the plastic trim on the opened boot, and here you see the bright white markings showing through.

Its almost as if the plastic push fit tabs have been bent whilst fitting the plastic to the metalwork.

It certainly looks unsightly, and not something you want on a near £19k car.

Has anyone else got a similar problem ?

I must admit I have never noticed any on my tail gate, as my wife out it at the moment I can't even check for you!
I will have a closer look tomorrow (7/07/05) on the way in to work and let you konw!

Mines OK, but the rubber seal down at the bottom left is showing wear, like it's chaffed, but the friendly Seat guy said, "that's nothing.... I can show you my car, it's like that". So no interest there. I'll put some rubber sealant on it if it gets bad.

checked one at the dealers today and it had marks, but not as bad as mine - they are treating it as a warranty claim and getting a replacement.

Hello Steve,
Sorry I couldn't post a reply on the 7/07/05 but my telephone line has been out of action for over 24 hours!!!
I have checked my tail gate and it all seems fine but will keep a close eye on it!
