paint peeling and coming off paint peeling and coming off paint peeling and coming off paint peeling and coming off paint peeling and coming off paint peeling and coming off

I first noticed the issue as a little rough paint on the roof of the truck so didn’t think much of it. Within 3 months I noticed it had spread and was in “lines”. This was not the normal old paint “splotchy“ fading. It then started on my hood the same way with the lines. I took it to the local dealership body shop and two other body shops and all said it was paint failure. The local Toyota body shop sad they expected Toyota Corporate to send out letters any day as it was becoming a common issue. This was over 3 years ago. Still no letter.

I contacted corporate and they said there was no recall and to talk to the dealership. The dealership said they couldn’t do anything but to keep calling corporate. I have called corporate many times and continue to check in with the dealership but the paint is getting worse. The dealership says it will need a complete paint job as it’s even starting to degrade on the doors. They gave me a rough estimate of $6000. I took it to a local small body shop and received an estimate of $4200. The Cadillac dealer body shop was in the $6000 range as well.

Toyota has been kept #1 for quality but now its falling down. Unbelievable, car not even 5 years old and paint started peeling off, rusting and spots(like mold) that cannot be cleaned off in roof.

I used to love Toyotas but this is making me mad. I keep my truck in perfect condition and there is no road salt where i live so it should not even be something that can happen. paint coming off by-itself. Checked with Toyota and they said that my vehicle is not covered under any recalls. Engine is great but what the point of the engine if the body falls apart.
