I've only had my 2021 Seltos 3 weeks and have small paint chips in 4 different spots (good, passenger doors and drivers side rear door). I am a careful driver, no off road or dirt road driving and keep distance from cars in front of me and in parking lots. I feel like the clear coat in thin or non existent and the paint quality/strength is not great. Anyone having similar issue?

1 week after I took delivery on the Seltos, I opted for Cquartz Ceramic Paint coating on the entire vehicle, now when washing the vehicle, dirt simple just falls off. great investment.
I did same on my previous Audi Q5, after 7 years, the paint was amazing, as though it was still brand new.
Cheers

My best friend does the ceramic coating as well. We are going to have that done this weekend. Definitely worth it!

Can anyone speak to pricing on ceramic coating? Interested... but mine’s on a lease.

No issues with mine. I have all primary exposed surfaces protected with XPel as I‘ve done with all my cars ever since manufacturers went to environmentally friendly paint.

Hyundai and Kia aren't known for paint quality and durability. That was one of the things I knew going into this. I ordered a Dr. Chip as one of my first purchases for the vehicle. Fix them as you go but I haven't had a chance to us it yet.

I picked up my Seltos SX Turbo about a month ago. Few days later went to get a PPF installed by 3M. While doing it the paint under both fog lights peeled up

Mine had cracking of the paint near the rear window trim. I got some Dupont clear and touched it up myself.

I have driven my car for 3 months and have counted 4-5 paint chips in my paint. This has made me feel so bad about my driving because I thought I was an isolated case.
