Catastrophic is a reach I agree. Trying to explain this problem to customers and themselves having to shell out thousands to get it repaired. When the manufacturer should cover this, they used too. The Hondas are doing this as well and mostly on three stage colors which is even more money. Just...
My Vin is in this thread just saying not to far back. That's all I got from what I understand updates can be random. Different versions someone can correct me if I'm wrong.
People complain that the paint is thin or crap on there car. Guess what all the manufacturers barter for the same paint. It's the process. I haven't seen Ford cars have paint issues in the last 10 years. Other than cross contaminated aluminum panels. They may have a few issues here and there...
It's called cutting corners, in manufacturing. Not enough mils of paint to provide uv protection. Long story but they ft up to make money anything less than 2.5 mils isn't going to cut it. Had the same problem in the 90s and early 2000s. But they covered it.

Nock on wood, I haven't had many issues with my car. If I did I have access but many don't. It sucks paying a lot of money for a car and having these issues. Hopefully you all get it squared away.
