Hi All,
I'm hoping to get some advice on an issue I'm having with my new Bronco and of course the worthless dealership and Ford.
I purchased a brand new 2023 Ford Bronco 2 months ago. I'm am not an expert in auto manufacturing, but there appears to be either a manufacturer defect or some other issue that is causing the passenger side door to rub against the passenger side fender and chip the paint. So far the dealership has refused to help. Aside from refusing to help or call me back they've managed to refer me to their collision shop. I've just contacted @Ford this morning, but I hold out very little hope they'll do anything. I've attached some pics.
Have any of you experienced ill fitting panels that have rubbed together and chopped the paint? What would you do?
The options I've been given so far are:
I've only just started to try to figure this out. I don't think that suing is the right move as It would cost much more in lawyer fees and heartache for me. Any constructive thoughts are welcome. Thanks.

The options I've been given so far are:
- have it touched up with basic tough up paint
- bring it to the dealer owned collision shop and deal with (pay for it myself)
- open a ticket with Ford if it's a manufacturer defect .. the dealer is claiming I have to deal with Ford
