trim around roof

Hey guys,
2026 CLE 53, named Allison. Allison is 3 months old. Tuesday I noticed a missing trim piece along the roof top edge - pic1. If you notice along the roof top trim edge there are 4
rectangles. I am guessing under them are drain plugs? Just a guess. Does anyone know their purpose. BTW - The SA mentioned he has seen this 4 other times and the entire trim part has to be replaced.

Rack port cover - issue has come up on the forum previously - aligns with your SA's comment. Three months old, the dealership should replace it at no charge.

Thanks and thanks for the link. I am at the dealership now getting it replaced. I assumed all along under warranty and did not mention cost. I am also a concierge there.

Nothing has changed...still need the entire trim piece.

One on my car kept popping up after running through the car wash. I super glued it shut. Will do the same with the others. Dumb idea to put a roof rack on a sports coupe anyway.
