The paint on my 2018 Honda Hr-V is chipping on almost every surface of the vehicle. It started on the roof, which has turned into about a 2ft in length surface, and it is now peeling on all 4 doors.

I filled out this form and tried to submit, but saw an error according to your system. I have a paint problem with my 2018 Honda hrv. I see online that there are paint problems with the 2018 hrv, fit, & Accord. The recall that I saw was for a different color than my vehicle. What I also saw was that the manufacturer put too thin of a clear coat on the vehicles. The dealership is claiming that my problem is not covered because it is an environmental issue...tree sap or bird droppings, which is the out that has been given to them. Guessing that the manufacturer has told them to use this to disallow claims. This is clearly a manufacturing defect. I have never had a vehicle that has done this because of bird droppings or tree sap. I have only had one vehicle that a maker volunteered to fix... that was a Toyota vehicle. Al, of the rest of the manufacturers want to make you take them to court to get resolve. I am giving an estimate of the time/mileage of the notice of the problem.
