I have a 2016 Nissan Versa car that I purchased new. The paint is chipping on both of the back passengers doors. This is the first time it ever happened with a new car. ---

Not a new car… a 6 year year old car and an inexpensive one at that. Touch up the chips yourself or have the doors repainted. ---

Chipping or flaking? The former is generally due to rocks, door dings, etc, and is not a warrantable complaint. Flaking can be the result of the environment with the sun being a factor. Out of warranty anyway. ---
