The trim piece on your car's B-pillar (the metal support between your front and rear doors on the passenger side) has warped and bubbled, pulling away from the vehicle at around 24,700 miles. The dealer says the entire window panel assembly needs to be replaced and it's not covered under warranty. There's a risk the loose trim could detach while driving, especially at highway speeds, and it may also affect your door and window sealing.

On May 12, 2022, when I got in my vehicle and closed the driver's side door, I heard a crackling sound. When I looked in the rearview mirror, I could see a gaping hole in the rear windshield and glass falling everywhere. I got out of the vehicle to inspect it. The rear windshield had not been impacted by anything; it just spontaneously cracked. I house the vehicle in my garage, and that's where the situation occurred. I bought this vehicle brand new on March 1, 2022.
