Scratched Paint from the factory. UNACCEPTABLE!!!

UNACCEPTABLE!!! I was detailing my car the other day and I was obviously looking for any defects - especially paint defects since there seems to be a lot of complaints from forum members.

Well I found a doozy and I am NOT HAPPY!. I found this scratched valve cover and it wasnt hard to miss. It sticks out like a sore thumb. How could this have gotten by their inspectors.

Ok, so its obviously there and I didnt do it. SO I brought the car back to the dealer to see if they could give me a new engine and the service manager said NO!

[email protected]!!!! I paid $70,000 for a car and they think this kind of defect is acceptable?

Well I lost it and demanded they replace the motor ASAP but the manager just LAUGHED AT ME! He said they could respray the cover with RATTLE CAN PAINT!!!

Are you kidding me? RATTLE CAN PAINT? This is TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE.

So I opened a claim with Chrysler. Either replace the engine or give me my money back. No Way am I going to live with a rattle can spray paint job! NO WAY!

Take a look at the damage. Its so obvious I cant believe this passed inspection. I am too embarrassed to even open my hood. Whatcha all think?

Looks like I posted my problem in the wrong thread.... Oh well.

Did you ever get that new engine? (full disclaimer I only read the first page, 9 pages is definitely TL;DR).

Can someone give a little more info? Curious on how a thread can cause permanent vacations.

Why are you still beating this drum? You need to get over it and let it go.
