It is getting progressively worse by the day. Remember, I drive 90 hwy miles each way to work each day.

The crazy thing is it is only happening on the passenger side, just above the vent on the front bumper.

Do you drive in the right lane mostly and close to other cars? If so it might be crap getting kicked up off the shoulder.

I don't know. I bought it CPO and they didn't disclose anything, but the rear bumper peeled and cracked after a minor parking bump.

Probably don't have any recourse after 108k miles though.

The rear has definitely been repainted. Factory paint won't peel nor crack when nudged.

Yep. Here is the original thread on that issue.
