Default Stone Chips - 2005 Accord

Does anyone else have a problem with tons of stone chips on the front of their 2005 Accord Sedan. Our car is only 3 months old and it has a ton of rock chips on the front. My wife does drive the highway everyday but it just seems like there are way more than normal. My car has 20,000 miles and doesn't have a fourth of the rock chips as hers. Any suggestions?

yea, thats a problem that can be easily avoided! leave an EXTRA 50ft between you and the car in front, that will drastically improve the situation. also, NEVER drive behind big rigs. they kick up and *** LOAD of rocks and pebbles! also, try to wax the front end of your car more often, it will help to protect against the little knicks

ive had my 93 eg for several years, and i havent added one extra chip/dent in the front ever since. and if u do happen to get a chip that goes through the paint, make u you clean it off IMMEDIATELY and cover it with touchup paint, using the end of a toothpick. otherwise, rust will eat through your panel and it will eventually create a big gaping hole
