Steering Wheel Seperation?

Anyone else have this issue? Not a big deal but the unequal space annoys me sometimes.

Did you bend your steering wheel? It looks bent.

I don't believe so, it looks good when I look at it.

I'm noticing this now also. It isn't anywhere near as bad as yours but the right side has a little more of a gap now.

Warranty that in case it becomes a safety issue down the road.

I'd be upset.
Not to be rude, but how? Maybe if the airbag didn't go off in a collision and someone's body crushed against it.

Steering wheels are supposed to bend so they don't kill you if you hit them in a wreck. It's easier then you think to do it...

The interior of these cars doesn't seem to hold up well. At least in states where there is a large temperature range from what I've noticed.

I actually just noticed this morning as well. Mine is on the left side. Is it me or is it supposed to be like that?

The airbag module is held in by 3 bendable metal clips in a hole behind each of the steering wheel spokes, including 1 just behind your problem area. The clip might be loose? Try pushing that area of the airbag module to see whether it 'clicks' back into place first?

I've been able to bend steering wheels by simply pulling on one edge with enough force, it's not that difficult to bend.

But OP's pictures are from a straight on angle, and even though the gap is visible there's no way to tell if there's vertical seperation (which would suggest the steering wheel cover material lifting or center airbag seperating).

Maybe additional pictures would shed some light on this.

Hopefully if thats true then my efforts to keep the sun out will help. Car was tinted with a high heat rejection darker tint within week of purchase and religiously use sunshade when its not in the garage.

Your steering wheel is wicked dirty.
