I like my Honda CR-V and when I bought it a few years back it looked really good. I have not washed it hardly at all, but I don't have a garage. About two years ago the clear coat started fading the paint, and it has progressively gotten worse. Its all over the hood and the roof, and I want to keep the CR-V but I'm ashamed of the paint job.
Update from May 18, 2017: Just called Honda America Headquarters to speak with customer service and Dave the manager just kept repeating Honda wouldn't help us due to age of car. I don't see other 15 year old cars with this paint issue. Honda sucks and I'll never buy another one if that's the customer service they provide.

Significant paint fading...makes car look very bad!

The hood of the car had to be stripped down to the metal and had to be repainted. Good thing this was under warranty.
