Consumer Description

I have a white 2014 Hyundai Santa Fe Sport. About 5 years after having the car, my cars paint started to peel and now rust. I talked to the dealer and they said the warranty for paint on my car is up. Recently I have discovered new articles, multiple facebook groups and forums discussing the same issue. When I drive around, almost all white Hyundai's are having a similar issue. Reached out to Hyundai and the denied the issue is due to them, even though every body shop I have taken the car to ensures me it is a manufacture defect. There are also people out there who have been lucky enough to get Hyundai to get the car repainted even though they are out of warranty. The pictures provided due no show the most up to date peeling. There are small spots that are starting on the side of the car.
