    Anyone know the thread regarding this? Just noticed mine has a tiny paint chip from the plastic trim piece at the top. I know I’ve read about others with this problem.

    Haven't heard of this before. I'll keep my eyes on it though. Dealer should do about it no?

    I may have read it on another thread where others mentioned it but I know others have experienced it. It is right by the tailgate handle. Very tiny but not ok. The rest of that plastic trim piece is lifted a tiny bit off of the tailgate except in 2 spots. Next service I will be mentioning it to the dealer.

    Here are the pics. Clearly one is noticeable and the other side isn't really bad... yet anyway.

    Figured out where I saw others with this issue. The 2022+ Facebook group page has a couple posts about it. Seems like quite a few have the issue.
