Just picked up my new Gator xuv550 a few hours ago and have a major body/paint issue. The machine still had the white shipping protection film stuck all over the green body panels. The dealer pulled them off, but it looked awful from never being washed, so once we got home, I decided to give it a bath. I noticed what appeared to be glue still on the rear bed panel beside the tailgate, so I got my vehicle wax to remove it, but the area started bubbling like a film was released from the panel and then it peeled off which was in green strings. I am pissed to say the least! It is a work machine, but it shouldn't screw up the body just from cleaning it after a days work. What will it look like after a while of serious work if this has happened with less that 1/2 hour on the meter and one day old? What a stupid way to produce a product. JD is gonna pay for this one way or another, or I'll never make the first payment. I could have paid cash anyway, but 0% can't be beat and in this case, I'm glad I didn't! I will not be satisfied unless the complete body is line-x covered after seeing this, so that's my goal now. Anyone done this? I've seen complete Jeep bodies done inside and out, so this should be no problem I'd say. Pics attached
