    So, I noticed this on my steering wheel the other day. I only drive with my left hand, so I know for a 100% fact I didn't cause the scratch.

    I think this will be covered under warranty, right? Will they replace the whole wheel? Or just take it apart and re-cover it?

    Depends on your dealer. If they are cool they'll warranty. If not they'll tell you to shove it. Taking it by the dealer and asking them would be the best approach.

    Be sure to mention the Mcmaster-Carr Floss act! That always makes them do what you want.

    4Runner Trail wheels and Toyo Open Country ATII tires 265-70-17. Cosmetic stuff like Pro grille and OffRoad black bumper trim, vinyl delete on side, added hood graphic, OEM tube steps.
    Good luck. If you have more than a couple hundred miles on the vehicle they'll tell you to pound sand. Selling dealer would be more likely to help.

    Your grill is not stock. Can't be repaired unless the entire wheel is disabled by default and a warning sticker is placed on the dashboard. Your regional Toyota representative just said "tough titties."
