Hi there, new here. I'm having an issue with my white 2009 Honda Pilot Touring's paint job. Any help would be appreciated.

The paint job throughout the entire vehicle has strange splotches/areas that are extremely dull and almost gray looking. Looks like oxidation, giving the car a very "dirty" look. I have tried to wash any residue off the car, but nothing seems to be working. I purchased the car at a Honda dealer, certified pre-owned and paid for an extended warranty in April of this year. The problem started the first time we washed the car after purchase. Should I bring the car to the dealer? Is there any chance the warranty will cover it if it is a clear coat failure or some other paint issue?

So frustrating. Thanks in advance.

Pictures would help, but taking it to the dealer should be a first priority. 2 years old and failing paint? Unless you wash your car using lacquer thinner every other day, I'd say that's a manufacturer problem.
