The left, and right side back panels, the back end (under the lift gate) AND the spoiler are different colors! It's supposed to be white diamond pearl however; the parts mentioned are not, They are noticeably turning BEIGE! It's bad enough it didn't come in a WHITE and I had no choice but to get the "diamond pearl" now it's even worse, large NOTICEABLE portions here and there turning into puke beige! Looks like the factory just picked a part here and there and slapped it together like a puzzle...who cares? close enough?
I never noticed it because it was always in the shade of the garage. We barely drove it. I'm now using it and recently a friend unloaded some items from the back for me and said "hey, why is your car different colors?"
Big pill to swallow when I barely have any miles on it. It is a 2012 fully loaded CRV-EXL and in showroom condition with extremely low mileage. Not a good candidate to trade in or sell now!
I have regretted leaving my tried and true Toyota brand since the day I bought this Honda for too many reasons to list! The discoloration of my sub-par paint job is the icing on the cake.
There are recalls on other Honda models/paint colors but not this. Has anyone else dealt with this? I'm speaking from experience of the few times I needed to do business with the dealer, I dread going back, they can't be bothered to give you the time of day...they don't know their *sses from their elbows except to lie, they are pros at that!
I started noticing little scrapes to the pane near the door handles. I felt bad cuz I thought I screwed up my new car finish. Now 3 years later all four areas under the door handles are scraped like crazy. Also someone set something on my hood and I have scrapes there and someone leaned against the drivers door and there are scrapes there. I'm a little po'd because of the cheap paint situation. I afraid to touch the exterior. I'm going to try and have the exterior detailed and see if that helps, but I'm kind of afraid all the paint will come off! Detailing starts at $180. Any other suggestions. Has anyone used the kits with color you dab on?
