Hood Corrosion

[pbprime]

Anyone seen anything like this on theirs? 2021 5.3 Custom TB (Black) just under 46,000 miles. Going to swing by the dealer since Corrosion Warranty is 6/100,000 but totally surprised by what I saw.

Only noticing it on the hood - across the whole thing

That's terrible. Are there stone chips at thos locations, or is it coming from under the paint?

Do you park outside and let bird poop or tree sap sit on the paint?

I'm in a place with a lot of snow and instead of using salt we cover the highways with sand and gravel. It definitely saves a lot of vehicles but at the price of hoods and windshields. Are you in a similar situation or drive on busy gravel roads a lot? It really looks like rock chip damage.

Bird poop yes - but I wash it once a month plus it rains often - not allot of rock chips especially as wide spread as the roof indicates

I thought it looked like bird poop. It is VERY acidic and will eat the paint if you don't get it off ASAP.

I'm pretty good at washing it off - I'll see what the dealer says when I take it in

It almost looks like what happened to my wife's Tahoe when she was parked by a person running a metal grinder, and the sparks were landing on her vehicle.
