I had a small stress crack on the driver's door when the car was delivered. Fully repaired under warranty. No problem...

I did and noticed it when I brought home. Turns out someone between the factory or dealer cracked it when closing the rear hatch. The wire controlled vent that is supposed to allow air to escape so the hatch will close doesn't work as intended for many cars. GM has had to repair several cars, hence their putting the automatic pull down on 2016 Stingrays.

Mine is Cyber Gray and the dealer repaired if under warranty and it turned out great.
