ill check it after work

 

Yes....although mine doesn't appear to be that warped. September 2014 build date. RT.

 

are any of the retaining clips broken/missing?
I just popped mine off a couple weeks ago to change out the center speaker, and it seemed to be pretty firmly held by the clips..

...tom

 

Yep.. I have the same issue.. Dealer ordered new vent trim and installed it. Fix isn't as bad but it still pops up on driver's side corner.

 

yep...mine curls up on the far left drivers side as well.

 

Mine did also -- but I thought it was when I swapped the dash speaker out. I'll keep an eye on it. If it keeps doing it, I'll have to swap the OE speaker back in -- before complaining.

 

Nothing here, ya'll use your defrost a lot?

 

Not really actually. Mine was doing it all summer.. Would push it back down and it would be popped back up a day later.

Great idea on the velcro though. Will have to give that a shot.

 

I had that issue on my 12 Durango. Cut a small skinny strip of Velcro, stuck 1 piece to the trim and the other to the dash. Never thought about it again.

 

nobody used superglue?

 

$40k vehicle and i have to use velcro? looks like a vendor issue to me. I haven't touched anything with the dash. I think the cold Michigan weather has caused the part to constrict which loosened its grip at the site of the clips?

 

Well, mine is flat and flush now. No one will ever know, replacing the part does not necessarily fix the issue. It will still pop up.

 

i would make the dealer replace the part, it shouldnt do that and while velcro might work, i would want that trim replaced.

 

My point exactly. Not bashing any of the fixes out there, I assume I will ultimately have to fix it my own way anyway. Just upset that there is an issue with the part. Overall happy with the fit and finish of the D interior just picky about things. I had to adjust some of the panel fit in the back of it when I first picked it up? Im sure the dealer should have caught it upon delivery. I understand when these things are going down the line one after the other every 60-70 seconds things get missed. I will address it with the dealer soon

 

I noticed it on mine a few days after delivery. I was able to press it down hard and it has stayed.

 

Just noticed this thread but, its happening to my 14. The dealership ordered the part so will see how everything goes.

 

Same here. Popped up and dealer said is on national backorder. Great. Oh well.

 

My 14 as well... going to put a little gorilla tape and it'll fix it up

 

I had this issued with my 2014 Citadel. I looked at it with an endoscope camera (only way to see what was going in with it pushed down) and it appeared the little snap/catch things weren't holding. It should snap into place, but that wasn't happening. I just swapped my 14 for a 17 GT, and was happy to see it didn't have that issue.

 

I just had mine replaced under warranty at the dealer... they said that the new part had about twice as many clips as the old one, so it seems that they revised the part to try and help the issue. New one looks good, so we'll see if it lasts.

 

This little vent trim piece is driving me nuts! Anyone else have issues with this piece popping up all of the time?

I had the same problem. I pulled the end of the trim up, heated up one of the clips (closest to the steering wheel) and bent the clip back towards the steering wheel. One word of caution though, don't heat it up too much, just enough to bend the clip and it should work. it did for me.

 

My 2015 Citadel is now having this issue. It popped up on the drivers side while going down the road yesterday morning. It was the first cooler morning we have had so thinking what others have said that the colder temps shrink the materials enough to let loose. I’ll be checking into solutions as well.
