    Anyone having issues with the White paint? I just noticed this dark spot forming on the front fender. Took it to the dealership this morning and they want to send it to the body shop to have it repainted. I'm not sure I'm ok with having a year old truck I purchased new re painted already! Anyone have any experience with this? Will it lower the value of the truck?

    :eek: I've seen some paint problems on the MGM, unfortunately too common here. Have not seen too many issues with the White paint other than it chips too easily.

    what else is there to do besides paint, maybe try to see if the dealer will give you a super deal on trade in for a 2017, long shot.
