So my truck was at the dealership while they investigated a blown speaker (turns out it is blown, and they ordered a new one).
ANYWAY, I guess while it was in the shop, it got oversprayed with
something. It's black and hardened on the paint. It is worse in one particular area (the passenger C pillar), but there are specs here and there over most panels of the truck, including the hood, sunroof, doors, etc. I didn't notice when I picked the truck up last night. I saw it for the first time when I was buckling my daughter into the truck under a parking lot light, and wondered what the hell it was.
So I took it back to the dealer this morning and confronted the service manager about it. She came out and had a look, and while she doesn't know exactly what happened, took responsibility for it. They booked the truck into their detail shop next week to give it a complete exterior detail. They also offered me my next two services for free.
Anyway, should I be concerned about the process they use to remove this overspray? It is a brand new truck, and the thought that my clearcoat may be damaged by whatever chemical/process they use to remove this crap is making me a little sick. It is mostly localized in one area, but there are specks here and there on pretty much EVERY. SINGLE. BODY. PANEL.
This is not how I wanted my new truck experience to go...
