Havent noticed my mirror but that grill isnt OEM, its been sprayed gloss black. The OEM grill is a matte color. Maybe your mirror caps are also sprayed?

Is your LIGHTNING a Platinum trim level?

The chips on the grille are normal. It's a bad design in my opinion. Not covered under warranty.

The chipping on the mirror caps is unusual. My truck goes through the carwash on average of at least once a week and doesn't have a single chip in that location. Is your truck exposed to contact with anything in that area?

Under 10k miles and I have several chips on my Platinum grille - I mentioned it to the service advisor and he said “rock chips” to which my reply was “why then are there only rock chips on the grille and not on any other part of the front of the truck?” He just shrugged.

Im experiencing same issue. 900 miles on a 2024 carbonized gray platinum.
Dealer agreed to respray. Did a poor job on one mirror and forgot to do the other haha

On my 23 Platinum, they covered replacing the grille under warranty because the film was bubbling up in an area away from where there were rock chips. I would be interested to know if anyone has a good solution for protection or a replacement that is more durable, since I am guessing this will become an ongoing issue?
