no
No there is a dumbass screw that holds the hold thing together on the bottom side. If ur within warranty they will just do it for you. Otherwise irs annoying.
It’s normal in the sense that the tiny little piece of plastic that holds that whole section in place breaks super easy. Both of mine broke. I zip tied it.

How long is the warranty on this? This happen to me too and mine is a 2022
Not normal
You can check your warranty on the tesla app. Scroll to the bottom and check specs and warranty
I have a 22 and it’s like that. I wonder if the $50 extended warranty I subscribed to will cover it.
Yep. Zip tie if you're out of warranty. Otherwise, it's covered. They replaced the whole panel under warranty with a mobile visit for me.
Thank you, I appreciate it! Damn just missed my warranty, expired 2/1/26 🤦🏽♂️
I hate that whole panel. Im on my third controller because the pins the buttons clip into keep breaking. Tesla refused to cover it under warranty sayings it’s wear and tear.
Both front seats in 21 M3P had to have this repaired out of warranty. Tesla charged $68 to fix both of them.
Doesn't hurt to reach out. I opened a service ticket saying the below if it helps. "The plastic piece holding the driver seat controls juted out when the driver seat was Self adjusting to a diferent driver profile. This makes no sense.A quick search online shows this has been an issue in the model 3 and Y."
Yeah that's not right. I recall my buttons were loose as well but only really noticed after the whole thing was just hanging out. I think when they replaced mine it came with new switches/buttons.
Will do, thank you! 🙏🏽
I noticed this on the passenger side of my Juniper just the other day. Guess I'll be placing a ticket
Same thing happened to my 21 M3 SR+ before switching to a 25 MY
Im under warranty thankfully that’s why I’m trying to get it fixed now.
Can confirm; mine is covered under warranty with mobile service. I noticed the passenger side is about to break, and they will also replace it.
Was there something noticeable like the panel sticking out a little?
Sir, this is a Wendy's.
on my driver side, the piece looked like the picture. You could move it and was evident that it was broken. On the other side, I just happen to check that the plastic screw was turning white which was indiciating that it was about to break. Here is my picture I sent to Tesla on the passenger damage https://preview.redd.it/mhrilar1erng1.jpeg?width=2247&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b8e073e1e25bc0e400ea57f80aeb230fcf0c04d5
Perfect. Will be checking tomorrow.
My passenger side did this used it as an excuse to install carbon fiber seatbacks and used the clips AND 3M super 77 adhesive to put them on, they ain't going anywhere.
Was happening to my 2023 when I bought it 2 months ago. Out of warranty and the deductible on my aftermarket warranty was as much as new carbon fiber seatbacks so I just went that route and used 3M super 77 adhesive and the clips. No movement in 2 months and I fold the seats down regularly to haul stuff, as a matter of fact they are folded down right now with stuff resting against the front seatbacks.
I had the same issue, mobile tech said it was a known issue and replaced all side sills with metal clips, i was out of warranty. I wasnt charged for the clips or labor.
No, neither is all the dirt..let’s clean that up pronto.
