    Yep that's as much of a rip off as paint protection.

    You'll need to get a trim repairer to come and repair the damage.

    I use interior protectant on my car and take good care of it. Took it to honda on friday and they have ordered a new part for me.

    As for the pillar rattle.....

    When i dropped off the car at 9am i pinpointed exactly where the rattle was, i explained it happens majority of the time and if they can have a look at it.

    5hrs later i get a call to pick up my car, a quarter of the tank is gone, they could not "detect any rattling" even tho the reason i told them wher it was was to avoid them having to muck around investigating it.

    Now come on! i had to wait around town for 5hrs for them to tell me something they could have told me in half an hour, and why fartass around telling me they couldnt hear it(just my luck it didnt happen while they had it)
    all i wanted was for them to open it up and tighten everything. Took a day off work for them to do absolutely nothing.

    As aaronng said,there are mobile guys that do that sort of work.is sounds like they'll have to respray over the damage.I've had it done on my wifes car,they do a good job.I know a good guy but i'm in Sydney.

    welcome to the suck.... also known as - owning a car!

    stuff like that happens to me all the time, somethings not working, you take it to get fixed, and the cant "replicate the fault"... atleast you didnt get charged a service fee! ive worked at places that charge you full labour if they cant find a fault, even if its under warranty!

    i sometimes get the rattle in my door pillar, im gonna put some foam in there or something, just gotta have the time!

    honda techs sometimes like to thrash our cars to simulate the conditions when it rattles. but they never can...jerks to the max. i now ask them never to drive my car out of the compound if i service because for some reason every servicing seems to require about 1/4 of my fuel tank
