Red big brakes paint coming off

Hi guys. I noticed that my front red big brakes paint coming off. My question is does Mercedes have warranty on this? Need your inputs. Thank you

If I recall correctly this is an issue that they have had before where they almost seem to loose their gloss and fade in color so I would go to your dealer and make them deal with it.

I have 25K miles on my '15 sedan, and my red calipers are glossy as ever.

I always thoroughly wash off my calipers every time I wash the car. The only thing that touches my wheels and calipers is normal car wash soap (Wolfgang Auto Bathe). Never been a fan of wheel cleaners as I always felt that they were way too aggressive and could cause damage if not used exactly as described.
