Add another one with a 2021 bumper paint issue. Both sides. What was the verdict for others who were impacted? Do they just touch up the spots? Do they repaint the entire front fascia? Will it happen again unless the replace? I haven't take it in to the dealer yet...just trying to prepare and make sure it gets fixed properly.

Just had this happen on an Escalade Sport white diamond tricoat manufactured feb 2022 and stumbled on this forum. Super annoying they haven’t fixed this issue yet. Is it more of a rubbing issue from tight panel contact or paint adherence issue? Also will they send a factory repainted bumper if you push them too?

Prices don’t matter to a robot. They paint it all the same. Paint is an issue with all brands.
Right. I believe there's a class action lawsuit on Lexus vehicles. The clear coat was completely failing.

Paint isn't as good as it was decades ago due to environmental concerns.

My last two trucks had to have the front bumpers repainted because they chipped way too much. My dealer determined the clear coat was too thin. After the dealership painted it by hand I had no more issues. It’s the robots that don’t have an eye for imperfections so it’s left up to the quality control that already has enough on their plate with producing as much as possible.

I was wondering the exact same thing. We have a 23 white sport and I tried buffing it out by hand thinking we scuffed it up. Wonder if there's a sensor behind causing this.

Took my Escalade to the dealer this AM as paint is peeling on both sides in the same spot. Being told the whole front bumper needs to be painted. Less than thrilled that a $100k+ with less than 1,000 miles needs refinishing work View attachment 600932 View attachment 600933

Does anyone have a 2023 that is having this same paint problem? Chime in 2023 owners if you had this happen.
23 XT4 at both headlights. Dealer offered to "touch up" saying repaint might cause problem later! WTF!!!!!
Then agreed to repaint. Seems like this has been well documented as there's Service Bulletin about this exact issue from GM back for 2019-2021 XT4's.
