the black plastic trim around the top of my windscreen is falling out. it started in the middle just above the rain sensor but now it is all of the top section. has anyone else had this problem?

Yes, when the car is shipped it has a thin plastic wrap on the car to protect it. The wrap is tucked under the wheather stripping of the windshield. If the person is not careful when removing the wrap they can loosen the stripping eventually causing it to fall off. I had this and my dealer glued it back into place. It only took them a few minutes to do the fix.

Cheers
