When I received my brand new Tesla model Y (owned, not leased), there was some sort of glue residue on the interior "fabric" trim on the A-pillar. I reported it right away on collection on delivery date. After trying to get it off and also taking it to the service where they tried to get it off using some sort of McGuire cleaning solution, they were not able to fully clean off the residue / stain. Because the residue is not removable, **Tesla service center offered to order and replace the interior a-pillar trim for free.** However, I think there is a risk that taking it off / replacing the entire trim means taking other parts of the trim off which creates a risk of rattling noise down the road. Do you think this is this true? Has this happened to anyone?

What would you do? Leave it as is, or replace the a-pillar trim? Is the "cure" worse than the "disease" in this case? Is there a chance it could be worse to replace it? Any other tips or advice?

Clean new plane with decent Wi-Fi but uncomfortable firm seats and little legroom unless you're in the exit row.

Tesla is selling like hotcakes.
