Windshield Plastic Lining

so recently ive noticed that the plastic lining at the botton of my windshield is deforming. I dont have any water leaks or unusual foggin inside of my car. is this something i should worry about and bring back to my dealership to fix it under warranty? heres a pic.

great... haha. anyways should i bring it in for replacement. from the looks of it, the plastic is only a covering and doesnt seal out water anyways. like most of us, i just dont want the dealership ripping my car apart.

LOL, well I'm going in tommarow to have the wheels aligned and i figured id have them fix that thing to, since I'm going to start showing. It's under the warrenty, and I figured for free I need to have it fixed.. can't go to a show with that big lump there (even though you'd fit some flyers in that gap nicley lol)

I had that problem over a year ago, they did replace it under warranty. Now the same thing happened again and I have no warranty. Really no biggie though. Like the others said... it is a civic.
