| Description of the problem | Starting approximately two months after purchasing my vehicle, june 2017, my paint has been steadily chipping off of my car, mostly in the front area (hood, roof, sides of hood). As you will see in the video, touching the paint makes it chip off. It started out as just a couple of chips and has steadily turned into large pieces of missing paint especially after taking road trips of more than two hours, i notice a big difference. I tried to load a video so that you can see, all i have to do is touch the large spot on the right side of my hood and the paint literally falls off. |
