If under warranty , take it in. My 06 had the same problem. If you buy from ebay just remember the 04-05 emblems are flat and the 06 and up bulge out and look better.

mine bubbled like aftermarket window tint. Not sure if I did it with the pressure washer nozzle being too close or if it was a factory defect, but was replaced free under warranty.

Had mine replaced under warranty. No fight from the service dept either. Just pointed it out to the service manager and had it done a couple minutes later.

Just called my dealership and they said that because I was over the 36000 mile mark it wasnt covered...even though I explaind that I bought the extended warranty they said it was just for powertrain....what a joke. I then asked how mush it would be just to buy it and it was 65$. Fudge that.

My truck is less than 2 years old and I noticed the same thing. I guess I'll take it in before warranty runs out. Guy
