Bumper Defect!!

Just noticed this this morning, hard to see in photo but the black middle part is turning white. Was fine 2 days ago. Looks terrible, called but it can be fixed under warranty and they have tried to buff it out with no luck. Pretty sure the new will do it again then I'll be back again.

Yeah, I've seen this happening to cars on the lot that have sat without a coat of wax or sealant on the piece - just warrantied one for a customer.

A bit late to the party but mine was just replaced for that exact problem.
