I have lived in the same town 35 years and have driven the same roads under simular conditions. I always get chips, but don't complain because its expected. This is different. The car had a chip before I drove it off the lot. The chips are not round like I've seen when a rock hits, but more like slivers...long narrow cracks.
 
I haven't seen any more in the past month or so and if it doesn't get worse, I won't compain. I just want my car to hold up as well as all the other cars I've driven here for 35 years. I think thats reasonable.
 
I own 2 other Toyotas which do not display this problem and have been on the road a total of 18 years.

Your not the only one but it seems like there are only about seven of you having these paint problems on your new Corollas that are posting on this forum. Out of approx. 750,000 model 2009 Corollas sold to date that's not too shabby. I would say most other car manufacturers can not boost customer satisfaction records like that on their paint.

Hi Terceltom
What exactly is your relationship to the Toyota company and if your not having any
problems with your paint on your Toyota vehical then why are you on this forum for consumers with Toyota paint problems?

I don't think a chip in the paint on my automobile looks great at all, not to mention that now that the cheap paint is chipping my car is more susceptible to rust.

I enjoy being an informed Toyota owner and subscribe to all Toyota forums as I own four Toyotas of my own, that's why I'm on this forum. I've been a subscriber since the inception of Edmunds.com Townhall forums and most likely have been a subscriber long before you, so please don't question my entitlement.
 
As I stated in a previous message I feel sorry for you Toyota owners that are having paint trouble and hope you all get it worked out to your satisfaction. I know how angry I would feel if this same situation happened to me. But I have to question unrealistic expectataions from you to Toyota to issue a recall of 2009 Corollas or settle in some class action law suit when their are so very, very few of you that are having this issue. Perhaps a new paint job might be a more reasonable and more realistic request from Toyota?
