2018 SSV HEMI AWD
So I noticed this today while at work… looks like the paint popped from underneath???
No idea how long it’s been like this.
Anybody dealt with this before? Is it a Manufacturer Defect?

Thanks for the responses.

• It was never in Police Service, it was a dealer demo I purchased.
• “Umbrella Dents”, like literally from an Umbrella? Nope.
• I had an extended warranty, but I’m now closing in on 80k miles. I’ll see what my dealer says regardless.

Maybe it had something dropped on it then. Unless you can tell there is a dent from inside. I'll be shocked if a dealer covers it in any way.

It might be hard to see in the picture, but the paint in bowed out, like something popped from underneath, there’s approximately 3, that I’ve noticed so far, and there’s zero indications or evidence of anything from inside the passenger cabin hitting the roof.
I’m also the only driver.
I’d be shocked too. They do keep trying to get me into a new vehicle, maybe they’ll try use that. Who knows.

my guess is this also.. do you live in a northern/snowy climate?

Complete opposite. I’m in Florida.

I had this happen to my 300S. I removed the overhead console to upgrade the map lights, and i guess when I put it back in , I used too much force and the retainer must have hit the roof causing a slight bubble. It took a long time before I noticed, but it is there, not as bad as this one, but it is there....

I’ve never done any upgrades to the interior.

it is a defective primer job, period! Get the dealer to fix or upgrade like you said.

Good to know, I’ll bring that up when I go. Thanks!

You may need to bring the guy in your avatar picture cause it is sad to say, dealers HATE warranty work and will do most of what they can to blow it off.

I’ll see if he’s available. 😂

it’s amazing how they’ll everything possible to avoid warranty work
