The peeling started on the door handles and now has progressed to the front of the car. Looks horrible and cheap.

I bought the car in mid feb. within a couple weeks of purchasing the car I noticed that there were paint chips that weren't there when I bought the car and the problem just kept getting worse. When I noticed the paint getting bubbles in it I contacted the dealership where I bought the car. They told me to contact one of there other stores to see what they can do. I called the dealer and talked to service and was told to bring my car in and they would take pictures and get the process started. When I drove the 50 miles to the dealership the person working in service would not help me he claimed it was normal wear and tear. If you look at the pictures there is nothing normal about paint peeling off of a 3 year old car. This guy was just a smug little punk too lazy to take his hands out of his pockets and do a little paperwork. This all happened at the Mcgrath hyundai in Dubuque Iowa. They're good at getting you in a car but once you sign the papers you're on your own.

My 2014 Hyundai Elantra paint began to chip and peel..It started this year 2022 and seemed to happen almost overnight. A spot appeared on the trunk lid out of nowhere, about 3 inches wide with the primer clearly visible underneath. There is also a peel happening on the fender about 2inches wide along with some chipping on the rear door. I read where a class action suit was dismissed in 2017 related to this problem.
