I was researching defective paint on 2009 toyota matrix when I came across this forum. We have owned our car for less than a week and already have three chips on the hood. Toyota said that they were rock chips, which seems to be the standard answer, they filled them in with a paint pen but it still looked bad. They are going to sand down and paint over them on Monday. After reading so many complaints on different Toyota models, I'm not sure that this will fix the problem. This is a brand new vehicle, I walk around it everyday now checking for new paint chips. this is crazy! Toyota needs to acknowledge that this is their problem and stop blaming the consumer saying that it's rock chips.
