| Description of the problem | I have a 2007 white tundra. My paint on the tundra is now dull. Fading and beginning to peal. The disappearance of the top coat began four years into owning the vehicle. I've complained several times only to be told it's my fault. I've seen several complaints about this same issue which tells me this is not an isolated issue and i'm not the only one experiencing this. The paint on the entire vehicle is matte; no shine. No wax will bring the shine back. Stains from toyota repair shop are consistently visible and will not wash out of the paint. Toyota doesn't seem to want to take ownership for the bad paint. |
