Yes, I have the marks, too. Reported my finding last week, 4 new rims are on order.njerald said:I was looking at my daughters new CX-9 (2 weeks old).
There are black marks in irregular patterns on all the 20" wheels.
Used some wax/cleaner but they appears to be under the clear coat. Told her to go down to the dealer and ask for new wheels.
Anyone else have this marks?
Is this caused by brake dust somehow affecting the clearcoat or somehow getting underneath it?
Nope. It looks like this from day 0.Is this caused by brake dust somehow affecting the clearcoat or somehow getting underneath it?
Q1 - Were the marks there when the vehicle was purchased?
Q2 - Have they gotten worse?
I noticed the same thing on my wheels.. I have the GT AWD with 20" wheels. Other than ordering new ones what else can be done? Did the dealer fight you on the replacement?
Thanks,
