There's a recent thread about this very same thing ... don't have time to search on it, but both NOS2GO4ME and I posted in it ... if the wear is on the front edge of the door, then you need the door realigned and that should be warranty ... if the wear is on the leading edge of the dog leg that's a bit more normal, however you should check the alignment of the door in front of it to make sure it's not "inset" too far and exposing too much of that edge.

If you live in an area that's very dusty or you're on gravel roads a lot, you may want to consider some way to protect those areas.

I never noticed when we bought it because it was raining and freshly waxed but at the rear doors on the bottom and back the paint is noticeably faded. It is happening also behind the front and rear tires. It is very noticeable because the car is black.
I DID notice the sills on the bottom had paint completely gone from debris off the tires and dealer said he'd fix it my next oil change. I doubt they will fix the doors though.
ANybody else have this problem and what did they do to fix it and prevent it?
Mudflaps may stop damage behind the tires but this is happening in front of the tires also. I'll try and post a picture to show what I am seeing tonight.
