I bought my first new car about a month ago. I found out car manufacturers basicaly put only 1 or 2 coats of paint on cars these days, so that if you even look at the car wrong, it will scratch and you’ll have to take it in for touch up.
So I’m gonna do that, but then also shell out for PPF on the doors, fenders, and hood. When I shouldn’t have to, and never worried about on my older cars.
Used to have a Hyundai. Paint was coming off as early as 50k. She was missing paint entirely in spots at 175k.
Was it a white Elantra? Ours did the same and when we researched it, we found out that there was a recall and that they would repaint it for free.
Except that the recall offer expired BEFORE we bought the car.
It was a Blue Veloster
