The "rubber" interior coating in my SLK is wearing off. What should I do?

More specifically, I want to know if it's covered by warranty. If it's not, I wan't to know how much it's going to cost me. Any suggestions?

I once had a peeling-effect on the MB badge on top of the steerring wheel, the dealership replaced the badge free of charge including the air bag that was attached to it. So I'd say give it a try, even if it sounds somewhat unreasonable, you might get lucky.

Covered by the Factory but not the StarMark, mine is peeling on the center console but I am going to wait till just befor the factory warranty is up to get tit fixed/replaced.
