How does that happen? Think it should be fixed under warranty? |

Looking at the location it looks like heat damage which has destroyed the lacquer Always listen to old people or when they die you will live on in ignorance.

What in the engine do you think caused that heat issue? |

It is the paint clear coat peeling off of the top of the carbon fiber gel coat due to UV damage. It’s caused by the clear coat not being thick enough to provide proper UV protection. It should be fully repairable. 2020 SVR / R.I.P. 2019 SVR / 2016 D4 Landmark / 2005 D3 HSE |

Did you resolve this with Landrover? I’ve got similar laquer peel on exposed carbon bonnet, car is going to main dealer on Monday for security update and will ask them about warranty claim (car is 2018 though so out of usual period, only chance is under anti corrosion warranty). |

Was declined as warranty claim by dealer and then Landrover, currently with the Motor Ombudsman to decide - claim reviewed and initial case review / opened but told there is a big backlog and nothing heard since July! Could you post pics of your bonnet and year of your vehicle? Any further cases could be useful. |

I have exactly the same issue on my 2019 35K miles dealer agrees that the issue is the laquer application is too thin and the UV light has caused the issue, Land rover have declided and said its ware and tear. |

I've still heard nothing from the motor ombudsman a month on.
