armorall turnings door panels red??
 
I've been using the armorall wipes, the one in the purple container, and while it works great except for lint, I did notice that on my door panels, the plastic piece with the little opening for storage space, has turned a slight tint of red. Could this be the armorall's fault? Can it be the result of a combination of wipes and letting it dry too fast in the sun?

I never heard of armorall turning plastic or vinyl red.

They were probably there from day one, I bought a 2k2 back in march and noticed my door panels (passenger and driver) had a distinctive red line in the same spot on each side, from there they had blotchey reddish patches you could only really see in the sun.

I took it back to the dealer, they ordered me two new door panels and replaced them under warrenty as a manufactures defect. I never used armor all, or any other detail product.

if i took it back to the dealer, would they take my car away until they get new ones or do they order the new ones then lemme know when to bring it in?

They usually order the pieces and then call you when they come in.

They ordered mine it took about 3 weeks because the driver side was on back order, they called me when they came in, it took about an hour for them to do the work.
