Sun Shade

My sun shade has begun to tear away from the frame.
It is tearing right along the front right corner. I believe it was caused by driving with the windows and sunroof open though I can't rule out the kids. Of course the kids say they are not guilty.
Anyone else seen this problem and if so any chance MB will cover it?

Depends where I'm going.
Sun shade? Are you referring to the sun visor? If you are, MB should cover it under warranty. I actually have a problem with my visor as well. When I flip it down and forward as far as it will go against the windshield, it will droop down till it's completely vertical and then I can't see the road. I just need to go in and get it replaced. Tank about annoying though!!!!!
