I live in California. I’m not sure if it’s the heat or what but today I noticed that the fit for the left dash vent isn’t good. It looks like it’s popped out on the left lower side of the vent. Does anyone else have this issue. I’ve tried to push it into place but it won’t like click into place. Anyone else have this issue. I’ll include a picture shortly.

I would just pop the whole thing out and try to put it back in straight. The whole vent and bezel pop out pretty easy with a trim tool. At the very least you'll be able to see any issues behind it.

Thank you for that. Do you know where there are instructions on how to pop it off or what the tool is called?

You can use anything thats plastic and can pry behind the trim piece that goes around the vent. Be careful not to scratch the material though. Better off if you buy an auto trim tool set off amazon or something and use that. Takes a little pressure to start popping out but then it's easy. I've done it on mine and you'll be fine. Good luck

I need to see what you mean, I'll check my truck as well.

As you can see the bottom left side is popped out. I’ve tried pushing it back down but won’t catch. When you look at it head on it looks fine. IMG_5602.jpg IMG_5603.jpg

Just confirmed with mine it's flush, I would just have the dealer take a look. If it's a loose catch, they can probably remove and snap it back in for you, or maybe a broken clip, they can order you a new one.

Awesome. Thanks for the feed back man. I’ll have to reach out to the dealer but my experience with the two local dealers out here hasn’t been great.
