Gls 450 2024 - plastic covering from below rear seat is falling off

I purchased 2024 gls 450 a month ago and noticed that plastic covering from below rear seat is falling off when we.move seat forward and backward, not sure if anything is connected between or defective covering piece. Going to check with dealer. Anyone has such issue?

Covers in those areas are commonly just clipped on. I had plastic coverings at similar location but in the 3rd row that they had forgot to put on and I found them later in the door pockets after driving my new gls home and I was able to install them myself. Inspect it closely and if you don't see any screw holes or nothing trapped/pinched underneath, you might be able to snap it back in place and save yourself from the hassle of going back to the dealer.

Don't remember whether it was the exact same panel, but I had one of those, too. Gave it a gentle whack until the clips caught properly and it's been fine since.

My trim in that exact location looks the same on my 2023.

no amount of whacks has re-set it. When I had the car in for service they said it’s supposed to look like that 🤷
