I have super white (040) paint and it's flaking off due to original manufacturer paint defect. Paint is flaking off my passenger back door and a large piece/area of roof. flakes of paint will come off at highway speeds, creating a vision hazard for drivers behind me or a distraction when flakes hit the windshield.

Tl* the contact owns a 2016 toyota corolla. The contact stated that the paint peeled on the front bumper of the vehicle. The contact later received a letter from the manufacturer, requiring vehicles painted with factory applied blizzard pearl or super white paint to go to a local dealer, to have the vehicle repainted.

On 08/11/2017 my daughter was driving through a intersection when another vehicle failed to yield in front of her. She was involved in a head on collision and the airbags did not deploy on her 2016 toyota corolla. The body shop said the car should have been totaled but due to the airbags not deploying, the insurance company did not total the vehicle. I feel we were treated unfairly due to this. My daughter also suffered injuries from the incident. Two years later we see there is a recall for the airbags.
