Not that Luca wants to hear more bad news but heads up on this issue. A couple years ago, the polished front cowl on my garage queen' '17 began to show signs of 'pox' under the shine throughout most of the surface. Turns out, it was magnetic not stainless as it was supposed to be. Thankfully, it was replaced by my dealer under warranty without question. Bad batch of metal.

The cowls on early cars were indeed stainless steel, painted or polished. Later cars circa 2017 onwards the cowls were made from mild steel and were painted or chrome plated.

Thanks, Michael. As they say, a wet man doesn't fear rain. I will raise this issue with my deadbeat dealer when I reach out to them yet again on Friday. If nothing happens by Monday or Tuesday I'll ask the factory to step in before exercising other options. Did you have a good experience overall with your dealer?

Luca, In general, yes. I've heard mixed feedback from others. In fairness, I have a degree of sympathy for U.S. dealers as there's a wide gap between the expectation level of product quality and customer service in the U.S.versus the support dealers receive to live up to that standard by MMC. Knock on wood, my 3W has only been towed in once and that was pilot error.
