That's weird, I've ordered every new vehicle I've boughten which is 3 and my wife's traverse they had the exact one on the lot. I just said nah, I still want to order and they were fine with it, took 6 weeks.
I've actually had my bumper repainted under warranty. They have a test that they do to find out if it is an adhesion problem or not, they pretty much take a piece of tape and if paint comes off it's an adhesion problem. I had about 100+ little paint flecks that came off my bumper though.
Mines been great. 28000 miles it's always smooth. But in tow haul mode downshifting from 2-1 it's been a hard shift maybe 5 times..I still really like it
I am actually getting my front bumper repainted under warranty on Monday. Every time I wash it more comes off. Dealer said they test it by putting clear masking tape on it and if any paint comes with the tape it's an adheasion problem. I have a 100+ little chips on that front bumper.
