Also, they dropped Loctite on the rear seat and burned the leather Lucky for me I spotted this within 5 mins of leaving the dealership as I needed gas. Lucky for them it landed on the center armrest and that's all they had to replace...

Hope OP gets to the bottom of how that trim piece was damaged.

RE the rear emblem, here's the diagram:

Quick search of the p/n shows some detailed pics:

I typically don't make excuses for poor quality worksmanship, but most of these recalls were done during COVID times where everyone is stressed and there's low morale and high work loads.
