Hey all, just got a CPO '19 E450 Cab this weekend and in love with my new to me car. A big level up from my '19 C300 Coupe. The thing is absolutely mint and immaculate with the exception of one gremlin I discovered when parking it in my garage - didn't notice outside in the sun:
This discoloration is only on the 4 window trim pieces that are below each window, everything else looks fine. It is smooth to the touch which gives me the impression it can't be cleaned. Anyone encounter this issue and find a remedy? Worst case I'll just bring it to the dealer and see what they think.

No do not mess with it why give the dealer an excuse to blame you, request dealer replace all affected trim which should have been checked during CPO approval process before delivery.

Yeah I'm just going to take it to the dealer first. Just seems like defective trim. Odd that it only is impacting four of the trim pieces and right below the window. Will keep this thread posted.

CPO doesn’t usually cover trim. However, it’s a 19. Should still be under new car warranty
Just popped over to the dealer during lunch and they confirmed that it is covered by the factory warranty, I'll book some time and get it fixed soon and it will require a day or so of work. Service tech said it's not uncommon and knew what I was talking about before even showing her.
Thanks for the help MBWorld fam, now just back to enjoying the ride.
