Ford is going to end up with a class action lawsuit before they even get the big Broncos rolled out.
Talked to a guy who works at another Ford bodyshop-- and he agreed it is odd to see the chips go all the way down to the metal given the primer, e coat, tri color, seal... etc



Just received my BS last week but noticed I also have a paint chip. Dealer said they would look at it but finding the right paint is the issue. Not a huge problem since the dealer has been good so far. The rest of the car looks great and plan to buff/polish/wax soon. I'll try and post and update when it gets fixed.

Ford body shop I went to said they have a machine that spits out Ford colors-- I was surprised at that, and thought what you said would be the case where they'd have to wait weeks to get the paint in stock.

@ThruDark Yeah and this whole thread kind of was saying that it was just a bad luck hit with a rock. This is shoddy paint work. There's notwnumerous examples including yours and mine. Although the plastic scratch is pretty deep but not all that abnormal
