The paint bubbling is being repaired under warranty. The car was taken to the factory yesterday and will be sorted in-house by the paint department. The pillars will be totally stripped back before re-painting. Car will be picked up on Friday.
A straightforward process to get it done. Photos sent at the start.
The work was being scheduled in with normal production. It was to be a second job alongside a sidescreen replacement. I needed the sidescreen sorted before a planned trip to the Hebrides and that was brought forward to fit in with the deadline for my trip. The paint repair was arranged for after the trip hence the car back in now. The sidescreen frame had cracked at a weld so causing problems with fit to the hood. Not good if on a long trip! The factory staff were excellent in fitting that job in pre the trip.
This week they are checking the tracking as well. Noticed in Scotland and a local garage reset it. I asked for the factory check whilst they had the car and we chatted about it. They were surprised at the misalignment after only 18k miles in just over 2 years so will do full checks. Slight wear on the inner edge only. Still legal so driveable within limits.
