Has anyone else had the bottom of there front fenders paint start peeling? I just got mine a few months ago and after the first wash the paint under the front driver side started peeling now the passenger side is starting to peel, you can’t see it unless you get close to the car or really look at it but I don’t want it to get worse and eventually lead to the top of the fenders, I have the extended warranty for it aswell

On the first wash I didn’t and it started peeling on the second wash I did because it was muddy and it continued to peel

if your in the 6 month factory warranty get it noted at your dealership and they should get parts ordered. If it’s out of the factory warranty and into the extended contract it might not be covered.

Ok, paint peeling on the underside of a plastic fender, and you’re surprised? First paint adhering to plastic is somewhat problematic under normal condition. Add to that, your tires throwing all manner of crap at it. Not only can it happen, it most certainly will. 🤦‍♂️

...as i agree with- hey thats an offroadvehicle- who cares- but- what i see from pictures- it seems the old x plastics where way better quality- most rides nearly 10 years old still look great- AC was always known for great thick shiny plastic - also on atvs- maybe some DONT agree ;-))

The dealer contacted Arctic cat and arctic cat said it wasn’t a problem form them and that they don’t cover body work at all

Yea we’ll after the first 20 miles on the car that should’ve not happened the cars paint job is very bad some spots didn’t even get painted very bad from AC end

those Plastics should not be peeling like that after just a few months. Are dealer got are friends warrantied. Maybe AC is being harder on warranty claims.

Might be that they are being harder but that’s definitely something they need to fix, the dealer told me to call them so I could explain to them how it happened, hopefully they do cover it
