    Hey Guys, I bought my Taco on November 2013 today I was washing it and noticed that the paint was chipping away in shape of circles near the rear window. There are about 5 different spots.

    Has this happened to anyone?

    I've read other threads of thin paint on these trucks. Time to visit the dealer.

    Take it in to the dealer. Good Luck with it. I fear that in time your paint on your entire truck will be shot.
    I had something like this happen on a car years ago. Ended up lemon lawing the car for Paint issues. They would have had to strip the car down to bare metal and retreat it from the ground up to make it last.... Of course they never bothered to so the paint kept pealing up.

    I will post pics in a little bit, but my truck is black and the chips now look grey.
