Default Roof pillar loose?

I noticed on my 2011 GT that my roof-lining plastic pillar--where the airbag is--is loose and hangs down an inch or so. The clip doesn't want to fully go into the housing or something. I guess I'll take it into the dealer...just seems like a waste of time...this is the first time I've noticed it.

my a pillar on my driverside has come loose also but some 3m double sided tape on the clip then punch it back in and it does the trick no problems after that

Make sure where the metal clip is attached to the plastic post isn't bending while you are trying to get it into the hole. That happened to me.

No, that probably won't happen in an M3, but for the difference in price, I'm willing to look the other way on interior fitment issues... Of course, being a Ford guy, I kind of have to

you're right, the interior is beautiful. The electrical system on the other hand...not so much
