White paint peeling in rear rain gutter. Causing erosion.

Filed Jan 13, 2026 · Body · NJ

In late 2019 I noticed paint peeling around multiple areas of the car namely on the driver side, including the driver‘s door frame around the gas cap along the trim of the windshield and in areas on the trunk. I called Honda many times including emails include that included pictures of the areas. A local Honda dealership finally agreed to fix the issues of which they fixed all but one, the area around the gas cap in January 2021 within a year. The paint began to peel again in the exact same locations and they refused to fix it. I have sent multiple inquiries two Honda asking for it to be repair been denied the pictures below are the most recent photos, but I have pictures dating back over seven years of the issue if needed.

Paint peeling where roof meets rear window in rain/water track

Filed Jun 30, 2021 · Body · NJ

I have brought the vehicle to the dealer as well as several auto body specialists. The paint is bubbling and peeling on the driver's side door, around the gas cap and on the frame around the trunk. Several online reports have been posted online and several other models from Honda have had extended recalls on their paint warranty. The same extension should be applied to the Honda Accord and Honda should be responsible for taking corrective actions as further failure of the paint to adhere will cause significant body damage, especially for owners like me who live in an area who use salt to treat their roads.

Hello, good morning, I want to make a complaint, I don't know if you can help me. What happened to my car was that I bought it at a major world dealership in long island city, which they told me that the car did not have an accident or total loss report, which turns out to be a lie after a few months with the car. I noticed that the car has total damage. Hey, it even has part from another vehicle. I've tried to get him to help me, but he says it doesn't have to do with the car anymore. They also charged me a guarantee of 3,000 dollars and they do not want to cover what the vehicle has in conclusion; the car has a destabilizing rear rubber, the part of the trunk enters the water, the doors on the left side do not belong to the same VIN number of the vehicle and a no number of thing. Please, I ask you to help me since I am a young latino immigrant who wants to get ahead in the united states. Right now I am using the vehicle because I don't have to go to work

The clear coat comes off very easily, cheap paint. A 2016 car should not be having this problem so soon.

On 10/10/2019 (thursday) approximately 4:45 pm there was construction going on between exit 312 and exit 319 (clayton /fuquay) area hwy 40. Construction dropped a large load which sounded really loud and debris was blown in the air and covered my car with cement like stuff on my car. Its all over my windshield and body of my car.

Dropped my car off for oil change and routine maintenance. Millennium honda service crashed my car and caused obvious damage to the front end of my car . Plastic undercarriage pieces are flying off as I am driving . Dealership is neglecting to accept responsibility and fix my repairs, which they obvious caused . After endless phone calls , talking to ever manager I can, nothing is done. I asked for pics or video of my car while in their possession but the service manager, greg andrews gave me every excuse in the book whenever I asked him for the footage .
