That looks bad! The dealer will swap it out for you under warranty.

I saw a post like this a few months ago, except only the silver part was peeling. The person had it replaced by the dealer.

Just found out mine is doing it to but on the sides. I would never have noticed.

What's the warranty on these? Is it based off of miles?

Any defects like this are covered under the 4 years/50K miles warranty. Outside warranty, I believe the parts warranty is only for 12 months/12K miles warranty. Seems like Lexus (at least my dealer) is pretty easy-going when making warranty claims.

Cool. Maybe I'll wait a little and see if it peels more.

Thanks dchar

Default 2016 RX 350 grill peeling!

I saw posts about earlier years doing this. This is my third RX and never had trouble. Off to the dealer to see what happens.
