Description of the problem | I am experiencing substantial chipping of the paint on my 2018 mazda cx-5. I have only had the car just under 3 months and under 7000 miles driven. It appears as though the paint is not bonded with the metal underneath the paint. Or that the layers of paint are not bonded. I have heard of many others experiencing same or very issues with the soul crystal red paint mazda is using. It needs to be classified as faulty paint and handled by mazda accordingly. |
