I just noticed the gap between the B-pillar trim and the edge of the windows is not right on the passenger side of my car. The Driver's side is fine (constant gap from top to bottom).
At first I thought the windows were misaligned, but they align properly with the gaskets so I'm pretty sure it is the B-Pillar trim that is twisted. Has anyone else seen this and do you know how this trim is attached?

Update: Looks like this will be a warranty repair.

Summary: The glossy black B Pillar trim has two two bolts at the bottom and a clip at the top for connection to the body. The adhesive attaching this top clip has failed and the clip is barely hanging onto the glossy trim.

Pictures for reference and the curious.
The matte plastic trim covering the bottom bolts is removed by pushing down and lifting out. (A fingernail between the glossy trim and bolt cover does the trick for removal)

This is helpful. I looked at mine and they are aligned properly.

However, I had a hairline crack in that part on the Macan ICE and it was replaced under warranty, but much more involved.
