2023 Tahoe driver, front-passenger knee rests buckle with mild pressure

[Tahoe23Life]

Hello, fellow Tahoe/Yukon owners:

I took delivery of a 2023 Tahoe a few weeks ago and have noticed that the driver and front-passenger knee rests buckle inwards with even a medium amount of pressure from either a knee angling outward while driving or a gentle push by hand when testing.

I would have figured this padded area designed to keep protruding knees comfortable would have been secured against buckling under pressure, but mine are not. They both make an audible click/pop when the piece buckles/flexes inward.

How do your knee pads respond?

Thanks!

I asked my dealer about this, who said the buckling knee rests are typical with current Tahoe and Yukon vehicles. Can any current-gen Tahoe or Yukon owners confirm?
