I hope folks start looking for this issue. Not cool. Another line item to add for my next service request.

I haven't attempted attempted a fix for it yet. The temps have been over 100° in Vegas for weeks now.

Still as bad as you first noticed it or has it settled some?

Today. It's hot but probably not supposed to do that. I'll put in service request. Anyone else seeing it?

Maybe it's the heat and humidity.
It's cool here today, only 105!
Dry heat and it's been 114 already this summer.
Mine lives outside in the Phoenix desert and no problems.

Could be. Humidity is usually pretty bad here in NC but its really dry lately. It's only the driver side. I added it to my current service request to fix.

My driver’s side piece had this problem today. Noticed it while coming out the car which is parked outside. I’m in Arizona and it was around 106 out. First time I’ve seen it but it went away later in the day as it got cooler. Going to add this to my service appointment in a couple of weeks.

So far it's been the drivers side that has the problem

I noticed that part on my CT when I picked it up on Friday. It was not bowed but it was loose where you can wiggle it and also the stainless-steel trim you can move pretty easily.
Anyone else having this issue?

I had this replaced at last service appointment. Although it doesn't bow as much it still noticably bows. OP did you get yours addressed?
