Will my warranty cover this stuff?

Okay, I have 1,000 miles of warranty left, so I suppose, as clique as it may sound " it's go time." I guess only the dealership will really tell, but here's a list of stuff I need fix. Will warranty cover it?

06 ss/sc

1. My Wheel paint is chipping Terribly. It's the stock, Gunmetal Finish, Wheel paint from the factory.
2. The mute button on my steering wheel doesn't work.
3. The plastic surround on the sunroof button falls off everytime I push it, i finally just stuck it in the glovebox now i have an ugly ceiling.
4. The silver paint on the plastic part of the arm rests, in the doors, is chipping like crazy, looks terrible.

Yes, No, What do you guys think? the only thing i'm sure they'll fix is the mute button, the rest is up in the air to me.

If the paint on the wheels is chipping away. There is a warranty out there for it.

The other stuff they should fix also.

Nope, it's on the inside of the spokes, where rocks and stuff hit it, I assume.

1. I have read of others that get them repainted by dealer for free...
2. They should. Mine worked, then dint, then did again.
3. There is a TSB (Tenical service bulliton) on it and they will fix it. I had mine fixed.
4. They replaced mine for me after 6,000 miles.

Just an update, the dealership fixed everything but the wheels. They had them ORDERED, and then the service manager said it was damage from the road. I already knew this, and I tried to argue with him, tried to make him show me any car out there with the FACTORY wheel paint chipping, and he wouldnt even try, he just sent me on my way. I didnt want to cause a scene, so I just left. I'll try again when the parts for my arm rests are at the dealership.

dealerships usually dont cover wheels for paint chipping. sometimes they will have a company come out and refinish them though.

They don't know that rocks hit it, all that can be seen is chipping paint so it's worth a shot
