Consumer Description

2017 MAZDA CX-5 WITH SOUL RED METALLIC PAINT, ONLY 19000 MILES IS EXHIBITING SMALL CHIPS IN THE PAINT. WE ARE NOTICING CHIPS ON THE HOOD, ROOF, FRONT SIDE PANELS AND DOORS. NORMAL DRIVING CONDITIONS IN UPSTATE NY. WE HAD A 2014 CX-5 WITH THE SAME COLOR AND THIS DID NOT HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. WE EVEN PAID AN EXTRA $595 FOR THIS SPECIAL 'PAINT' THAT NOW LOOKS HORRIBLE!
