Not to many red ones around in Newcastle but when I saw this went and had a look at mine and it is exactly the same on rear right door looks like your skin peeling after you get sunburnt but mine is 2 years old dont know what warranty is on paint is only 12 months on trim

Take it to your dealer........you know ( by this thread ) it is a known and recognised problem by Hyundai.......even if it was out of warranty I would take it to them and request they fix it under Hyundai "goodwill"

Let us know how you go !

Paint warranty should be 10 years (can't remember if the i30 is actually 15 years!), (it is part of the anti-corrosion) but you must get the paintwork inspected and any corrective maintenance performed annually or else the warrranty is bust, at least that is the UK rules.  Most folk don't bother as they want to repair every swirl, chip and scratch at a premium price :rolleyes:
