Day 3, time for stuff to break. Stereo faceplate peeling off

I just got this car 3 days ago, now it's time to start noticing the flaws. First, I noticed the trunk mat on the underside of the trunk lid is ripped (doubt warranty will cover it). I also noticed that the brownish plastic on the bose stereo is peeling off in the bottom right. On top of that, the seek up/down button above it is sticking, I think it's getting stuck on this faceplate.

A) Would warranty cover this? (stuck button, peeling plate)
B) If not, do I just glue it down? What kind of glue? Any special method?

C) Dump the stock HU and get yourself a Double Din conversion

+1^^

The DD Conversion is not the cheapest thing, but definately worth it. A nice HU and DD conversion will run you about $550 or $1100 with a indash DVD player and 7" screen. It will run a little more if you need someone to install it, but you can do it yourself on a saturday afternoon and save a couple hundos.

If this is a new car, take it to the dealership and get it fixed under warranty.
