Window buttons chipping already

[DesertMike680]

Kinda crap that it appears to be twice as expensive as the 4 door

Yeah...makes zero sense with two less buttons...

Anyone have experience with window buttons on center console that chipped? They did this on an old car once but not one two years old?? See pic - wondering if it’s covered by warranty or if it’s a wear and tear thing - seems pretty lame if it’s breaking already tho.

see bottom two buttons. Advice appreciated otherwise I’ll call dealer tomorrow. Just curious if I’m only one - don’t think I’m hard on them

Started having this problem yesterday on my MY21. How disappointing. Thankfully my friends on 6G have found the solution. I will order the part and attempt to do it myself.

One of my window buttons did this. Glad the replacement part is cheap. Think I’ll go ahead and get it for when one or two more buttons lose their rubber.

1) I knew I loved this community for a reason... Thanks for the link!
2) Zero cars I own have something like this. Granted, it might feel sort of nice but grrr.... It is less then 2y/o and it is a problem. It is not worth the gain.

I legit blame my wife's nails for this... but baby Jesus, people have nails. It is just going to happen. Dumb design imo.

Do you guys (or gals) know if we have to take the center console out to replace?

No, the switch should just pop out with the help of a little plastic trim tool.

Sweet. Also, Just found these instructions : https://www.bronco6g.com/forum/threads/armrest-window-switch-replacement.74664/
However, I have two Recalls and a Window trim issue, so I might just have them fix it at that time. Really good to know that it is an easy fix though. Going to the dealer is just a pain.
