2024 Transit 250 Cargo roof paint peeling?

[_57phil]

We're planning to go on a road trip so I did a quick check of my 2024 Transit 250 Cargo. I was surprised to see paint peeling around the roof drains! It's a 2024 so I think it shouldn't be corroding this early and could really be a factory defect? Anyone had a similar problem? Any advice what should I do? Now I'm hesitant to take it for long drives just in case I take it to dealership and they tell me I caused this issue!

Paint peeling already? that's not good and i don't think that's something you'd cause!

sounds like a factory issue to me you better run back to the dealer and let them know. Corrosion can spread especially when it rains. you're still under warranty so just go for it

I agree with this. It's probably worth documenting it with photos and taking it to the dealership ASAP. paint peeling that early is usually a warranty thing.

That's definitely not normal for a van that new. Take clear pics and hit the dealer right away before it gets worse. If it's a factory issue, they should fix it under warranty no questions asked.
