    I’m sure this has been discussed ad nauseam but I’m including some pictures of my current situation. I’ve made a claim with corporate and it’s at the dealer right now being evaluated. This will be the second time for evaluation and the first time Toyota pretty much blew it off. I know the history of the super white paint. This is damn near the most ridiculous paint peeling I’ve seen since Chevy had the same issue years ago. It literally flakes off when you touch it. There are some factors that I let Toyota know of concern was the thickness of the paint, and or the adhesion to the primer and or bad preparation.
    I thought I’d put this up for that discussion if anyone has had the same or similar experiences were there paint that I could maybe help me and others down the road.

    They will never correct the issues.

    Yeah, pretty much every vehicle manufacturer of these days is in the same mindset. Unless it’s a safety issue and they’re forced to they could give two shits.
