Vendor Defects on interior side panels -Model 3- Anyone have same issue?

[dougatconcours]

On the interior side panels there have small bumps or bubbles in the material on the top area where you might rest your arm. It is textured , but these areas seem to have larger texture.

I didn't notice them or they weren't there when I picked up my car.

Has anyone had a similar experience???

My last 6 of my VIN is 325094, maybe we had a bad batch of material?

Would appreciate any comments or advice

My car made May 2018 had the driver's side panel with 2-3 big bubbles right at the top next to the window. It took about 6 months (I just didn't bug them enough it seems) and they just replaced the part. I'd just make sure to point out the defect to them so it's not claimed you somehow caused it...

Had a weird melted looking part on interior door trim reported within a week of pickup and was replaced with Mobile service withing a couple months.

One bubble is punctured now, I'm guessing I did by resting my arm/watch across it. That's when I first noticed.
