Chipped shifter

My stock shift **** is chipped on the outer rim, just above the leather. Do you think the dealer will replace this? It is rather sharp, and I can definitely feel it when bare handed, and when I have gloves on, it snags at the material.

Wondering if you guys thought it is worth a call.

Thanks,
TJM

Same thing happened to mine recently and I wondered the same thing. I also presume they will replace it.

But I used it as an excuse to get a whalen.
