Scratches On My New Fiesta

[Stewie316]

Hi.

It would appear i have located some scratches on the driver side door and yes, you have no idea how mad i am. Any idea's on whether i can get this fixed through the dealership?

Hi and welcome to FOC, there are some companies that specialise in repairing scratches for a franction of the price. Have the scrathces gone down to the undercoat? If not you may be able to get them out with teacut the same colour as your car.

There are about 4-6 scratches only on the drivers door, no other scratches can be located so far. There also seems to be some deep one's on the edge of the door really deep down to the grey. I dont remember ever opening my door to hit anything as i've always had my fingers on it when i was parked close to someone. two located below the door that look like stone chips from what i could see.

I will try to take pictures in the daylight tomorrow but after a nice car wash today i was in shock to see them. All scratches so far seem to just be on the drivers door. I didn't even see one near a tire or back of the car. I always figured i wouldn't see a scratch till the thing was a year or two old. Poor thing has only been 700 miles in 6 months.

I wonder if maybe the dealership would just touch them up or if am going to have to Shell out some big bucks. I just don't want them to get worse or rust.

It was hard to get the one on the corner of the door but how hard have you got to hit something for it to scratch?

I have the same problem! I have a lot of stray cats in my area who like to climb on my car at night, and out a lot of scratches on the hood. I also have a few chips from rocks. What's the best way to get this fixed?
