    Did anyone else experience this?
    Just washed the truck after 4 months since the stay-at-Home order. The paint literally came off around the back edge of the passenger window.

    I only have 27k on this truck. It shouldn’t be that quick to start flaking off. I wonder if there is workmanship warranty for this?image.jpg

    There is a warranty enhancement on many Toyota’s with white paint. Go to the dealer

    we've had no tacomas yet. i assume theyre part of the issue. doesnt hurt to ask. but plenty of camrys, rav4s and what not getting repaired on toyotas dime. Toyota has never had a good white paint.

    Hi have signed the petition and would like to know if anyone has personally tried suing Toyota either before or after repairs.
    It seems this issues is going no where!
