Paint inside bumper cover flaking off?
Do you guys think this should be covered under the factory warranty? Would you have it fixed? Not sure what to do.
This is happening on the front bumber and the back. I don't understand these Mercedes cars. We pay a premium and this stuff is happening. I have had many other cars and NEVER seen paint just start flaking off of any of my previous cars.

Happening here too. I took it to the stealership and they're going to have the service dept. fix it along with cracked side skirts that came like that from the factory.
Now if only they'd return my calls and give me the promised service appointment...

Not sure why, but the paint job on my whole bumper sucks azz... Mine is also starting to bubble just below the center mesh part!
Search the forum and you'll find a couple of threads about members complaining about their front bumpers pealing and bubbling!

mine is like that front and rear - I bought it CPO and it came that way so thought it was just poorly done from factory without paint there...kinda relieved to hear at least there was once paint there...tape it off and spray it black???
