My 2023 Chery Tiggo 8 Pro Excellent has paint blistering caused by rust on the tailgate, right exterior mirror, left exterior mirror, and left side mirror housing. When I noticed the issue during the summer, I contacted the service manager at Düzce Kervan Chery dealership and sent photos. Because I live out of town, they inspected the vehicle during my 12-month maintenance visit.

During the inspection, they asked whether I had a garage, and I said yes. They claimed the issue was caused by temperature differences between indoor and outdoor conditions. I questioned this explanation by asking why the left mirror is affected but the right mirror is not. I also pointed out that the car has window visors—if temperature differences were the cause, those parts would have shown deformation first. Additionally, the outside temperature is around 86°F, while the inside of the car is around 68–77°F, and I live in the Black Sea region, which has a humid climate.

The service forwarded the case to Chery Türkiye. After three weeks, and only following repeated calls from me, I was informed that the issue was not covered under warranty. I request that this issue be covered under warranty and that the deformed parts be replaced.

I would like to state that I do not accept the decision to reject my previous application to you on the grounds of "customer error / external factor". The bulging on the left side mirror cover of my vehicle and the deformation of the two black side pieces located on the upper part of the rear trunk lid did not occur as a result of any impact, accident, misuse, or external interference. The vehicle is used under normal conditions and is maintained regularly. The mentioned issues appear to be a manufacturing or quality problem related to paint/coating and material. In the response sent to me, no technical report, inspection details, or concrete findings were provided to explain why the damage was considered user error or an external factor. Simply stating that it is excluded from warranty with a generic statement is not sufficient or explanatory from a consumer standpoint. Therefore, I request: - A written explanation of the technical criteria used for the inspection, - Concrete evidence supporting the claim that the damage is due to user error, - The written report of the technical department that performed the inspection, - If necessary, a new and detailed examination of the vehicle. Otherwise, since I believe the problem should be evaluated as a manufacturing defect, I inform you that I will exercise my legal consumer rights and bring the matter before the Consumer Arbitration Board. In line with a brand approach that prioritizes customer satisfaction, I kindly ask that the issue be re-evaluated and resolved under warranty.
