"Avalon" has been resting for a few weeks now, and during her weekly maintenance check, Oil Brake/Coolant fluid,and a gobful of Washer Fluid was added, however when I lifted the bonnet I noticed that the frontchrome bonnet trim edgeis lifting off quite badly (1200 miles)pressed chrome trim gently in, and it was secure for a few seconds then sprung back and lifted off, seems to be slightly out of alignment too.Anyone else noticed this?

Hi Bob, there were a couple ofpostsabout this trim. Mostly that the trim tape backing was not removed on some early build cars and were 'whistling'because the trim was loose and vibrating. Others just came unstuck. Sounds like you need to get the trim replaced under warranty, because the tape is finished.

Thanks quatroxquatro. Appreciate that, very early days but sadly attention to the small details such as finish whether it be painted sensors which have quicklylost paint orflimsy/unsecuregrey, silver, and chrome trim fitting that spoil an otherwise

brilliant vehicle.
