    So within the last 6 months I purchased a used an orange 2018 Toyota Tacoma TRD Off-road 4x4.
    It just reached 34k miles. I went to the dealership because I noticed something off starting on my hood and roof. This shouldn’t be normal for a vehicle that’s only 2 and a half years old. Would the manufacturer warranty cover it? If so, where could I find this information? I really would be upset if I have to pay a few grand for something like this. Again, any help or advice would be appreciated!

    You can try, but there's been a few threads recently with the same issue, and the dealership has not been good about taking care of it.

    I would think that should be covered, I could maybe see paint looking like that after being parked outside for like 10 years but damn thats only 2 years old! If you don't have any luck with the dealer, try your regional toyota office.
