i wish i seen this thread sooner...
so anyways ...christmas morning i was heading up to vegas on a windy day. anybody who knows my area.... we get some pretty strong winds. so i hop on the freeway for not even 15 minutes yet and strong DUSTY wind hits my car! once i heard the little rocks and dust hitting my car i've already had the feeling im gonna get a bunch of chips. however, i didn't feel like stopping. i just figure shit aleady happen, move on. when i got to vegas and parked the car, got out, and look... i got like 1000 chips on my hood, front bumper, front windsheild, and driver side door and window.
the damage isn't really noticable if you are looking at the car from far away. while i am driving on a sunny day, i'll notice a bunch of tiny little chips on my windshield.
called the dealer the next day and the service manager said, warranty does not cover paint chips.....................
and oh yeah.. saw a 18 wheeler flip over that morning too.
