[QUOTE="Brian Wolf, post: 989948, member: 62545"] Richard L's case seems to hold water. :) Went to dealer number two to get a second opinion... They mentioned it looked like rail dust, The body shop mgr, and the lead painter came out to take a look. The manager said this is pretty common to only have on one panel, Vehicles are transported by rail to this area, and they usually cover all the panels with a cling on plastic, sometimes they forget a panel, and the dust gets on there, and can start to eat at it, though unnoticable at first, one day bam, it starts getting very noticable over time. He says it most likely happened during transport, and has finally become noticable. He made me an appointment for next week, and said they'll take care of it. Oh and the good part, They looked up my VIN, they said Ford hasn't declined anything, the other dealer probably just didnt want to mess with it because they are so big and busy. [/QUOTE]
