Need to clean
2017 Z51 Roadster with gray interior. When the top is down the sun visors catch all sorts of dirt and bugs. Dealer refused to clean them claiming they didn't want to mess with the sueded micro-leather. Comments?

If you can't clean them yourself take to a good detail shop in your area. Local Corvette Club should be able to recommend one.

Why would you expect the dealer to clean them? I agree , go to a detailer if you don't want to do it yourself.

Be thankful the dealer didn't attempt to clean them and cause some damage. At least they were up front with their capabilities.

Same with the little stones that get stuck between the tire grooves. Dealer said I was on my own. Detail shop got them out though.

Be thankful you have a dealer who didn't screw them up, instead of one who did and prattled on about it later.
