Rubber trim loosens off the wheel well

[Tâm]

You might want to inspect and make sure to push back in place any loosened slim rubber trim piece at the wheel well (mine is rear left).

Not sure if it's cosmetic (ok if it fell off or got lost) or if it has some kind of function.

Mine passenger side was completely missing at delivery. Lucid had to order a new piece to replace. Honestly, I haven't gone back to check to see if they are still in place. Will definitely need to do so.

Yep, mine came of like that as well. Taking it to service in a few weeks. Needs to be redesigned.

I have this situation in both front wheel wells. Seems like clips fell out on the liners. Cannot believe that factory missed them, so must have been bad clips... Going by service center today.

I had this identical problem fixed…then it happened on the same piece of trim again. I’ll leave it until my 2 year service checkup to get it fixed, it’s not critical but is ugly. If anybody looks closely after commenting on how great the car looks they’re gonna say “hey your car is falling apart”.

I am pretty sure my car came from the factory missing some of those clips, it was fixed by the service center on one of my first visits.

Just checked mine, they're all in place. 14 month old GT.

That the same as mine.

This seems like a common occurrence. It happened to me, rear driver side. Went to service it and saw another one with exactly the same problem. I was browsing YouTube today and also found this video with the same issue

I’ve had this serviced two times on my car. The second time was the same wheel that had been fixed on before, plus rear right wheel well.

This is my video, and the issue has returned. The double sided tape doesn't solve the issue.

I feel your pain.

Hummm ... time to take a closer look at mine again as I had one side loose and one side completely missing at delivery.

I had it serviced on mine too.

I am no expert but I think it's a design issue. It's doubtful a double sided tape would last long near the very busy tire full of air turbulence, dust, debris, rain water, snow...

Maybe that rubber piece needs to be eliminated for the next version.

Mine was clearly glued to the car. I doubt it's coming off any time soon.

Any idea what type of glue they used?

Not really. Looked yellow/greenish. Something like Pattex glue.
