    Hello folks. My first post and I wish it were a happy one. Unfortunately not. I have a 2019 White Tacoma, that I just discovered has 2 small ( about an inch square each) flakes of paint missing just under the drivers door window. This has to be a new issue for my truck because I am very observant of how my truck looks. After trolling around the web, I see that I am not the only person with this problem. I also see this has been a issue with several different model Toyotas, but Toyota will not do anything about this issue with the Tacoma. Has this happened to any of you ? Just doesn’t seem right that they will not stand behind a problem that they created! Anyway, wondering if this has been an issue for any of you, and if so, what did you do? Any advice is appreciated! Thanks

    Welcome, we don't talk about defects. I'm kidding. I'll go fish around and find the correct conversation here. It's easy if you know how. Do you have any photos??? I'll be back with help
