Chip Chip Chip Everywhere! I can say that this car is the worst car that i have own where the paint chips so easily. With the beautiful weather, i fully detailed my car today and noticed how many chips are in the paint. On the hood, some on the roof, on the side panels, and just a few on the doors. I have more chips then what they put in a doritos bag. It makes me cry thinking rust is next and i get from the dealer sorry but that over the time wear.... Anyone else got this problem..

I have a few paint chips on mine. Guess I'll have to take the self-setch marker out, spot primer and the usual touch-up stuff. Hope it works since I don't have all the equipment to paint my car yet!

have you tryed using some cleaning supplies like a clay bar. If you got time, deep clean your car. Clay bar is then follow up with polish and then after that wax it.. See if that helps improve.. i have used a clay bar on mine and it works great on minor paint spots
