Shifter Boot
Had my 05 in today to have the airbag recall taken care of and had them look at my shifter boot.
After only 8400 miles on the car there was a hole worn in the shifter boot, and I had them look at
it to see if was covered under my warranty.
They replaced it under warranty and it looks like they replaced it with a leather one [nice score].
The hole looks like something was rubbing when I shift between 1st & 2nd.

Got pics of the new boot? I've got @12,500 on my 07 and I've been concerned about that same thing because I've got some creases that seem like they'll eventually wear through too.
I've never had to worry about a car warranty expiring on the years before the mileage!!

I've put 1000 miles on it this spring after not driving it for 4 months.
I'm not afraid of driving it in the snow, I'm just afraid of the other idiot winter drivers, and don't want them to wreck my car.
I've had many close calls with other crazy drivers with my other vehicles.
