My Drivers side elbow rest cracked and I had it replaced under warranty 1 year ago. It is broken again, as well as the passengers side, same spot. They want $250 each since warranty is up.

Brought it in for a recall. I swear the workers broke it because it wasn't broken when I brought it in. Anyway, thank goodness I'm still covered under my 3 year warranty.

Rookiedriver door arm rest cracked under the fabric showed to a dealer and they offered to split cost of replacing part 50/50 since its out of warranty. Otherwise never had an issue with the car.

Driver side armrest frequently came loose, and then eventually the plastic tab that holds it on the top / rear side broke. Very poor quality.

RookieThis isn't a structural or performance issue but just one of those little things that go bad on cars far too soon.
