Damn, this problem still exits?
I was one of the original ones to post this and here's the deal:
It IS 100% covered under the 3/36 warranty. The part will be different on the 05/06 than the 07-09, I think. Either way, start with taking in the first post and pics and see what happens.
Yes it seems like it does. My left silver trim piece on the console was not installed correctly and is actually raised towards the top by the steering wheel. There is a bigger gap on the left side than the right because of this. I came to the forum looking for information and found this thread. I checked my console and sure enough my right side of the console isn't as tight as the left side. You can also see the clip on the right side between the gap. It doesn't look as bad as the original pictures in the thread but it is noticeable. Hopefully they won't give me issues about it or think I am being anal. I honestly can't believe it does still exist as this thread is pretty old. Thanks for the reply as I will definitely print out the first page when I go next week.

cool, i'll print out the first page of this thread and take it with me to my local dealership. Ive gotta go pick up my oil from there later in the week anyway, i'll just stop and ask about this problem too.
Is your console as bad as the pictures? I honestly didn't notice it until I stumbled on this thread thinking they were talking about the left and right silver dash pieces coming loose from the console (which is what is wrong with mine). Also, can you post back the outcome after your appointment? I will probably be at my dealership late next week for accessory installs so I was just going to ask them about the console then.

was this fixed under warranty for you guys? I'm still within the 3yr/36,000 mile factory one.
If not, how much did it all cost approximately?
Someone else will probably chime in but from what I have read on this thread and other posts on the site, it is definitely covered by warranty. I have heard of some dealerships not wanting to do it or not installing the piece correctly so the issue comes back. I know when I told my sales guy about it, he had never heard of this problem. So I called the service deparment and they said the same thing. Hopefully I won't have an issue when I go.

Well I picked up my 09 Legacy Special Edition over the weekend (I know it's not a GT but I am very impressed overall) and I believe I have the same problem. It isn't as bad as the first picture in the original post but I can see the little clip in the gap and it is wider on the right side. I am going to have to bring it in next week to get the windows tinted so I will have them look at it then. My silver trim piece on the left of the console will actually need to be fixed/pushed back into place though as it looks like it was not installed properly at the factory. There is a gap on the left side of the piece compared to the right side (none at all and totally flush with the center console) as it goes down the center console. It looks like the piece is raise up by the steering wheel. Does anyone know if the part number has changed? Can I just print out this thread with the part number in it? So far I love the car but man this should of been fixed by now on the 09 model as I am reading threads from 06 with this issue!
