Honda Car Forum

i have a premium white tsx (my color of choice) and i was wondering if
anybody has had the same problem as me. with very low miles 900, and no
highway miles, i started to notice alot of chips on the front of my car. by
the time i got to 2300 (non freeway) miles i had over 30 chips. the dealer
was great and repainted the front end but i was wondering if anyone else was
experiencing the same problem. brad

Maybe you got behind a truck carrying dirt or gravel,or a salt
spreader(deicing for roads)? Truck tires can also throw small stones.

Its one of only two complaints I have about the TSX.
It seems that they use some sort of "environmental friendly" paint on the
new Acura / Honda and its prone to chipping real easy.
I have a silver TSX and I have quite a few small chips.

You might consider that new 3M paint protection film after getting it
repainted.
