Hello, bought a Bronco Sport last week. Saw these two chips. I fixed the one by the tail light with touch up paint from the dealer. I was wondering on the other one. Should I leave it alone? IDK if the dealer will do anything. Will it be under warranty ?

Good afternoon! Can you please send over a private message with your VIN and the name/location of your local Ford dealer? I would like to look into your Bronco's paint concerns on my end.

The one inside the door is clearly a scratch, which I'm guessing you had no part in.

If it’s in the door jamb I’d just touch it up too. No one will see it. I know, you’ll know it’s there every time you open the door.

Very similar issue here. Took delivery on 7/2, home delivery, did the paperwork inside and walked back out afterwards and noticed two chips on the driver door edge. Unsure best way to fix, leery of touchup kits.

If my Badlands has paint chips and other issues, I’ll give my dealer one week to fix them properly before I walk. I am not putting up with defective paint from day one.

I agree. Yeah I was upset. I guess this happens more often then not. They offered to fix some of it but the issue is that the paints going to be off. Might even look worse.

That’s true. I would ask for some type of compensation to ease the pain!

Hey that pic of my trunk I touched it up and you can’t even tell it was touched up. I think yours should be ok. I would make the dealer buy the touch up paint and have a professional put it on. I’m sorry man but at least we ant alone
