Took it to the dealership and made them fix it, which they did.

I noticed the problem in my '09 right away and ordered Daystars. If the '09 rubber is better, I would hate to see what the earlier years look like.

I picked up some of the dealers recall latches for my '07 for under 9 bucks.

I can tell just from looking at them that they were shorter than the stock ones ever were brand new.

Trick is getting a damn wrench in there to replace them.
