I have a black 2001 SE 20th Anniversery Max. If I walk close to it, a scratch appears, sometimes down to the primer. Anybody else have problems with the paint on the 5th Gen?

 

Anyone else, hahaha, the question is who doesn't have the famous paint problem, yes man everyone has the same exact problem what else is there to say except live with it, lol not being mean just NISSAN's paint SUX

 

a scratch? did some one do tat to ur car? I know it is very easy to get a stone chip....

 

LOL, dont get too close to it! problem fixed

 

Has anyone considered getting a custom paint job?

 

We shouldn't have to go through this after spending 25K on a flagship car. Bottom line, Nissan paint sucks.

Everyday before I go to work I walk around my car to do a quick inspection (since I park on the street). I found this deep @$$ 3 inch scratch on the middle section of my hood!! WTF?? I could tell that the scratch is new becuz the little shavings of paint are still present. Who da hell did this? Cat maybe...doubt that though cuz it's only 1 line. This is gonna look nasty with touch up.

That's exactly what I'm talking about. This car should have paint that's tough enough to stand up to stuff like that. My black 93 Ford Ranger could.

OK, the paint sucks. Do I keep a gallon of touch up around? Do I use the colored wax that covers the dings and scratches? Do I complain longly and loudly to the dealer?
