At first we thought it was a mark from a rock, but after dozens showed up we realized it was peeling paint.

paint peeling

As I was drying the car from the car wash, I noticed paint peeling from the rocker panel of the passenger front door. I looked over the area where it was peeling, and there was no evidence of impact from road debris.

I took the vehicle to the dealer for their input and recommended action. Basically I'm SOL since the car is out of the 36,000 mile warranty. I thought of taking the issue directly to Toyota Motor Sales since the car is less than three years old (approximately 33 months), but I just decided to deal with it using touch up paint.
