Yaris paint / finish looks poor - not holding up through the winter.
Hey guys. My Yaris does not seem to be handling the winter well. Here's what I've noticed:
1. The paint is worn through in a few areas. 2. The car is rusting inside the flap that covers the gas tank hole. 3. There are scratches all over the side of the car from driving on the highway. 4. There are black streaks in the paint on the side of the car. I purchased the car new five months ago and have put only 3000 miles on it. Most of those miles are highway miles. I am one of the slow, cautious drivers of the world so the car gets treated quite nicely. It's never been above 80 mph on the highway (average speed is 60-65mph). The car is parked in a private lot during the day. I try to baby the car since it's the first new car I've owned. The car was washed and waxed professionally right after I bought it. Is this typical of the Yaris? I was visiting my family last week and every family member's car was in better shape than mine. It made me more than a little upset! |
