Re: Paint on new Jeep came ofF!
The painted flairs are not made of the same material as the non painted
ones. If the paint is coming off then it was poor bonding of the paint and
primer or you are using one hellatious power washer. The flexing of the
flairs has on bearing on the paint staying on other wise there would be a
boat load of molded bumpers that the paint would not stick to.

I would think (and expect) that this would be covered under the
bumper-to-bumper warranty.

good advice - don't use pressure washers on paint ; they are designed to
