    I have a 2010 Tundra and my paint is peeling off. Anyone have any suggestions on how to fix it?

    If it is white, I think Toyota put something out to address the poor paint quality.

    I saw the recall on the white paint but it didn’t mention anything about the tundras

    Is it peeling paint or peeling clear coat?
    I have peeling clear coat on my 08. Body shop guy tells me that it is because of the change to water based away from oil based. It does not have the longevity. Solution is repaint which is expensive.

    No repairing that other than repainting.

    That's a BIG chunk of paint missing. Only way to go about that is repainting like most others are saying.

    Did you spill any chemicals on there or know if at any time there was something split and maybe sat a while, the center of that looks a bit stained and is there a dent or a hole there? There looks to be a small slit.

    White huh? Not surprised. look around and you will notice most manufacturers have issues with white paint chipping and peeling on their vehicles. It is very common.

    That is a big chunk so you would need to repaint that panel.

    You have verified it with a nice exhibit. Sorry. That requires a body shop to repaint the entire panel.
