dash peeling on corners above cluster w/pics

Has anyone's dash began to do this, with any luck with Infiniti replacing it? I know it is common in AZ because of extreme heat. I took it to the dealer and they said its too expensive to replace that part because it will just happen again? They had no info on Infiniti working on a new part nor did they offer to find out.

I did just that, the dealership approved it but because of the high cost of the part they had to get approval from their regional infiniti rep, which he declined the claim. I noticed my last loaner car i had also had this problem, and when i walked into the showroom the g inside had the same problem. I paid way to much money for them to tell me its a characteristic of the vehicle and to live with it. I'm gonna call infiniti customer relations and see whats going on, if they are working on a revision ill wait but if not i want it replaced.

Just talked to Infiniti, she is putting a complaint in and I will receive a call back in one business day. I wish my dealership was that helpful and understanding. I will keep you guys posted, thanks for the feedback.

I received a call back from infiniti customer affairs, and they denied to replace the part... well either let it go or get a lawyer?
