*that yellow (orange) bronco is not mine. this is the second yellow (orange) one with paint issues, so i posted it here to see if other owners have similar thin paint spray/missing paint issue so Ford could correct it asap. Build date 06/21.

I bet it’s an oversight on Ford’s part. I can’t imagine they would be ok with this...

it isn’t the end of the world but for a vehicle advertised as a doors off rig they need to do better with quality control...

false....

What your saying is "it's a Ford! We should expect shitty work!"

I won't and no one else should either. Paint the damn thing.

Right. I didn't think we were talking about paint quality. I thought we were talking about a spot that was missed that will show when the doors (that are meant to come off) are off.

It's like opening your trunk and seeing that the fenders that come under the trunk are unpainted or unfinished.

I'm even more pleased that I went with AMB after seeing that. At least you won't see that with a dark color.

so what I am hearing, is we put a note on our order that we are going to be using it as a show car and it will get extra inspections....

Unless I'm mistaken, the 4 door Bronco in the "how to take your doors off" video has paint in the door jam.

I would understand if it’s painted but not clear coated… But not painted at all, comeonman!

I think if you look carefully it’s unpainted in the original video. I can’t believe this is the finished product.

They probably say to themselves it’s not a show surface because they haven’t built doors off Broncos in decades.

You're right, they shouldn't care about these details. Good thing they aren't trying to make taking the doors off a focal point of their advertising.

"Oh my word! The additional jigs and MOs and IPs!" Paint the stupid brackets.

Has anyone else had issues where the door jam is missing paint?
The drivers and passengers front fender area is not painted.
Tesla says it's normal.

It looks like a business opportunity to me. Somebody should make a snap-on cover for the hinge area. It is ugly even without a paint issue and is begging for a simple cover.

Deflection....

Real question is does the Jeep look like this?

Yes it does. The hinges on a jeep are exterior mounted, look in between the hindge and door, you will see the same thing. Jeep paints the doors with the hinges on.

I should say it’s not an eyesore though.

I think it’s a missed area on some of them Others on this forum that have broncos have been asked about it and the hinge area is painted correctly
