Honda has these problems too. I talked to a body shop a couple weeks ago about my sister’s Pilot. It’s already had one door painted, now it’s getting the roof done. It needs the hood and LF fender as well, but the paint loss isn’t big enough to get Honda’s attention yet. Honda is picking up 80% of the cost, they don’t have any programs on her model year, I think it’s a 2011. They have quite a few programs for other years and models.

When I talked to the body shop, he said the white paint used on my sister’s Pilot is notorious for the problem. They also have some bad paint drift issues at the factory, he has something like 20 or 30 different shades to start out with when trying to match the color.

Bottom line, the squeaky wheel usually gets greased. Start with the service manager at the dealership, then get with the dealer rep when he makes his monthly rounds.
