I have a 2016 FRS. I purchased it used. The car is still under the factory warranty. The arm rest in the door panel is sagging through in the middle where a larger guy would rest his elbow I suppose. It feels like the thin layer of padding or foam is gone and the plastic dips in.
I stopped by a local Toyota dealer last night and a service advisor informed me that the issue would be considered a wear item and would not be covered under warranty.
Has anyone else encountered a sagging arm rest on the door panel?
Does anyone else disagree as strongly as I do about this being a warrantable item?
Thanks!
