Default Radio Buttons falling apart

Hello Guys,
Anyone else run into the problem with the color comming off the radio buttons ? I just noticed that the black color is comming off leaving the white plastic underneath exposed, if you try touching the area it very easily peels off even further. Is this something the warranty would cover to get it replaced?

Yes it happens, warranty... no. Just buy an aftermarket if your that worried.

Good to know, any idea where I could find these ? I tried ebay but either I am not looking right or I am looking in the wrong place

The Cadillac CTS had the same problem. Luke at Lindsay Cadillac sold replacement buttons. Maybe Luke can give you a lead? Try Google. I use to have his e-mail address but when I sold the CTS and got the Hummer I lost it.

I think they are located in Virginia.

I've had the same problem. I used a sharpie marker to "color" in the area where the paint is coming off. It isn't permanent but lasts a few months.

Typically warranty will cover it one time. I know we do here at our dealership.

Dealer replaced mine too. They did say that they will only cover it one time. I try to make sure my fingers are clean before I push the buttons.

I would definatly try the dealer first, the worst that can happen is they say they wont replace them but I believe they will.
