OK, so I have owned my (new to me) 06 ASM EX-P for 12 days now. Dog loves it, wife loves it, I love it. PArt of the deal was for the dealer to fix two minor interior problems (a deep gouge in the center control bezel, and a missing rubber bumper on the back seat). So a trip back to the dealer on Friday and 30 minutes later, all taken care of.
Tonight when I go to put the dog in the back seat, opening the passenger side rear door, the plastic handle-trim extension just slid right off into my hand. It looks like the screw fell out (I found a screw that fits perfectly in the hole sitting on the door sill), allowing the two L shaped tabs to slide back and out of their respective slots.
Problem one. I think that it may be covered under my 12/12000 comprehensive warranty (it was a certified Honda used car- so it came with it). D'y'all think that such a minor problem be covered?
Problem Two. If it's not covered, how difficult is it to remove the interior door panel and get access to the screw-hole to re-attach the darn thing? The last time I took a door panel off, It was on a 80 Buick. I didn't care if I muffed that one up- but I am concerned about the interior of my new ElsiE, though... and, more importantly, so is my wife! My puppy-dog really doesn't care, as long as he gets to go along!
Any help you might have would be appreciated- I've searched for a similar topic here, but the only with door panel removal info is not the same as mine...
