Recall for Flaking Paint ?

[Deleted member 17973]

No. I’m going to treat the bare metal. I learned how to deal with these paint issues after dealing with Toyota. Not getting into a back and forth and having to relinquish my truck to have section by section repainted.

it’s always fun to watch the fanboys defend the indefensible.

Ford used a very thin coat on this truck and mine at least has poor adhesion. Thin coat plus truck going to equal problems. funny how I can take all my other trucks through a car wash and nothing happens

Hey Mike, can you do a walk around video on it and post it. That should clear things up.

Quick search on thin paint Maverick shows this is not only my truck.

fanboys go away. Back to your bridge.

Your Lol list goes up to 2015 4Runner. I had a 20.
sorry your maverick looks like shit but the pictures pretty much tell the story that no way is ford going to warranty that. Good luck though

Ok good luck!

Thanks for telling me how great the paint was in a blue 2020 for a recall that didn’t involve that color or year.

helpful.

Wait, so you have a Lariat Maverick but you put black steel wheels on it?

 

[Mike]

Winter dude

Cool. Good luck to you, Merry Christmas!

Sorry for your troubles Mike but Ford doesn't warranty abuse or accidents. That's what I see from your photos. Maybe you should have just posted the 1st photo and let it go at that. What do you clean that truck with, a putty knife?

I'm sure a lawyer will be happy to help you based on your convincing evidence of "easier than it should". Time for a Class Action Lawsuit!

Not really sure there's anything left to discuss in this thread.

OP showed damage.

Replies pointed out damage.

OP denies damage, continues to claim it's all defective paint.

OP knows about the warranty and is able to let a dealer make the determination.

So, suppose we'll wait to hear back how your warranty claim goes. Until then...

Yes. Point being paint is very thin and peels and scratches easily. Based on a search I’m hardly alone.

but of course I had a head on collision, rolled the truck based on the pics and truck is a write off. lol.

Either that, or you're simply a fan of straw man arguments, in a context under which there is no need for arguments or to be so defensive...

Fender does look bent and might have caused the paint. I have had someone bump their door against my door and literally pushed in the door metal a good 3/8th of an inch.. Have since installed the door trim on both sides.

Like my Maverick but it does have very thin sheet metal to keep weight down.
