Description of the problem | The car has multiple paint chips on the hood and all the side panels including all four doors with less than 3500 miles on the odometer. It is the soul crystal red color. The small pebbles that hit it were smaller than the eye could see while driving. (tiny gravel at a highway construction site) the body shop that's repairing it said they've never seen that much damage on a car that new. It's costing my insurance company $4000 to repair. I can only speculate that the paint might be extremely thin and not adhering to the metal as it should. |
