Default Door gaps

I have picked up a brand new 2024 TX350. I saw that the left fender closer to the driver side mirror is off and the gap is large, in addition the left rear inner fender was loose and not properly attached, I took it to the dealership and they fixed these 2 issues. Now I am keeping a closer look at all the gaps, and I see the gap between the hood and left and right fenders is not uniform, as well the gap between the front doors and fenders is is tighter towards the top. Anyone seen this ?

Not on your specific car, I've seen this on many new cars and once you start seeing it you can't unsee. I think quality overall of new vehicles is spotty, even high end makes known for their assembly quality are showing issues for example Porsche watched a video where panel gaps were all over the place.

You'll have to weigh the risk of a dealer monkeying around with your car vs. living with the cosmetic flaws.
