Gaps between underbody cover and rocker panels

[jnietfeld]

I have noticed gaps now appearing between the underbody protection panel and the rocker panels on my 2018 Model 3 AWD. I have just under 16K miles on the car now. I like to keep my car garaged in bad weather so it's never been on the road while its snowing or even raining. I have other cars that handle that duty. I as wondering if this has happened to others and if Tesla fixed this under warranty.

I have a 2018 MR. I had the same issue. The mobile tech fixed it.

I had the same issue shortly after delivery too that was fixed under warranty. I believe it was a plastic clip or fastener that wasn't properly seated and it ended up being an easy fix. Good luck!

I had this on my 2019. A solid upward thump with my fist, right at the spot where it was separated, knocked it back into place.

On one of the pics, you can see the clip that needs reseating.

I had the same issue with my 2021 model. Just hit it with the the fist and it snapped right back in. No need to go to the service center or call the mobile service.
