    Hello all,

    I just bought a new 2015 Tacoma sport 4x4. After a couple of days I noticed some imperfections on the rear fender mouldings. Does anyone else have this issue? Not getting much help from the dealer or Toyota. Some of the other new Tacomas on the lot had exact same imperfections/defects and others did not. I am little ticked off at the lack of customer service I have gotten thus far and any help would be greatly appreciated. Not what I expect when buying a Toyota the global leader in Quality systems. :mad:

    Thanks

    A few bolts are different.
    Lack of customer service is due to "over reaction" to a nonissue.

    I'm the same way when I spend good money on something but sometimes you have to step back and ask yourself if the demands set forth are realistic.

    In this case, I would imagine no.

    My 2014 has em. My 05 did not until I removed flares and put them back on. They get like that from a hard strike to the flare. This seats the clips holding on the flares. The areas that I can snap the clips in with a careful push didnt have this happen.
