Paintkia kia Optima lx snow white paint peeling chipping and delamination! it started about a few months ago in oct 2023 and now its starting to peel in different places please help this is not fair!.
Paint has begun bubbling and peeling in several areas. Body shops have said it is delamination.
�kia pearl white paint recall� I have had my kia Optima for less than 2 years. I am from the south and I drove it up north a few weeks ago and ice and snow got on my car and my paint has started peeling. It's $2,000 to get the hood and the drivers side pannel fixed and all kia told me is their paint warranty ended in 2016. I did not even own the car at that time. This is clearly an issue with the way they painted the car. No 2014 car should be losing paint from driving up north for a few days. I also called kia and they started a �case� they told me to submit a quite. I submitted the next day and a few days later they said they declined my request and their reason was because the paint warranty ended in 2016. All pearl white paint cars need to get their cars completely replanted. If this is not a common case please google the paint issues on this car. They are everywhere. I wish I would have known before buying the car. (3 photos attached).
