So these hinges are from a 2013 FoST, Obviously there was a recall I believe last year or so? These hinges were attached to the car for about 3k miles taken off and thrown into a box and sat. Today I took them out to check em and didn't realize the cracking until now.
So far its just the one that's received the damage(either over time, or happened when it was attached to the car), the other behind it seems fine.
Is this just bad material?
According to @brian60 it is a plastic cover that has cracked; I really never looked all that close because I see it occasionally when getting in the car and forget to look at it closely when I get out...
That's the plastic covering...not the metal underneath. The plastic cracks all the time. Mine is cracked also...it's just black plastic over the metal to make it look prettier.
