Question Re: White milky marks (?) on left air intake vent ...

f5fstop .. yes, I'm talking about the A pillar moldings. I can wait, but am wondering if warranty covers replacement due to the discoloration (spots due to some sort of splash up), or do you think I'd have to buy the replacements? The service writer more or less told me it was something that splashed up or bird droppings (not). Are you saying the new ones will be under warranty because of the roof rails cracking, which will need to be replaced? ALSO .... I just realized that an area on the hood (center, top edge, near windshield wipers) has the cloudy discoloration, too. I never thoughttoo much of it other than it would never polish off during a car wash. I thought the car wash just couldn't reach to rub that area. Now that you brought the bulletin to my attention and the dealer has acknowledged the cloudy discoloration on the other areas, I'm sure this is part of the same problem since it's all within the same area. I looked at it closely today and it looks the same .. freeform milky look. I DON'T want a new hood, or a repainted hood. I wonder if I should just live with it or see if they can use heat to get rid of it, as suggested on the GM bulletin... as long as the tech doesn't burn the paint.

Default Re: White milky marks (?) on left air intake vent ...

Roof rails are noted to crack where the pillar molding slides over. GM has a new supplier producing better rails, and better fitting pillar moldings. They were supposed to be out in May, but I have not seen the paperwork stating they are released. When they are released I'll post it here, unless someone else finds out first. It would be all under warranty. GM is aware there is a fit problem with the pillar moldings, and a cracking problem with the roof rails.
As for the white spots, I'm not sure what your's are caused by. I have not seen or heard of any white spots on the pillar moldings. If I were a service writer, I would have to wonder about some type of road splash.
