Default broken trim around door/window

Has anyone had a problem with this? 2004 Z06, 19K, garage kept.
First the drivers side hard plastic trim around the window just split in half, now the passenger side & starting to curl. Very strange.


Live in Texas, no extreme temperature changes....no basketball courts nearby...

I had the trim replaced under warranty about three months after I bought it. Same thing was happening.

Mine (driver's side) came broken in 2/02. I got the part free, but elected not to have it installed since the cure often is worse than the disease. But, the part is inexpensive, and the installation is easy for the techs at least.

I had the same problem, '03 Z06, with the trim around the passenger side at about 10,000 miles.
Had it fixed under the warrinty.
