Picked up my AWD Cybertruck it had some aesthetic issues and a weird vibration that’s most likely due to the wheels being out of balance. I have a service request. While going over the issues one of the employees said that they are unlikely to resolve a weld mark on my A pillar, even though I brought it up on delivery day and documented it with video and pictures. Has anyone experienced this? If so, did they resolve it?
I do not want to wrap it even for free I ordered on on reveal because it’s stainless.

They already tried to detail it out and decided it was a heat mark. The delivery teams appears to think it will be taken care of but the service employee I spoke to told me not to expect Tesla to do anything about it. I’m not sure who to believe.
I also had industrial adhesive all over the front, and rust spots that they were able to remove but the finish is all uneven now. I don’t really mind that though.
other issues.
The side view mirrors squeak while driving and opening and closing front doors worst on drivers side.
there is a vibration when traveling about 45mph and above 70 mph they believe the wheels need to be balanced.
And there is a factory sticker in the drivers side rear window showing when the window is shut. A lot of cybertrucks have this btw

I cannot picture this location, I think the reflections are misleading?

If it really is heat discoloration, I don't know if it can be removed. However, I am certain the part can be replaced.

It’s on the passenger side above where the window ends towards the front of the truck.

that is some BS if Tesla refuses to replace that piece and thinks that is OK for a $100k car.

That top "a-frame" of stainless steel seems to be really easy to replace. DirtyTesla had to have his replaced due to it peeling off at high speed (bad bolt). I'm sure it'll get rectified.
