New truck but not happy with the paint job!

[Stumpguy]

Purchase a brand new 2025 Tradesmen. Build date 6/25. I washed and waxed it noticing paint is not strong throughout the entire truck. Some areas are dark others are light. I bought the truck from an out-of-town dealer and they delivered it to me so I didn’t catch it before delivery. It’s almost like the paint went on too thin and some areas. I did notice a new Ram on the road darker gray with the same look.
has anyone else experienced this with their truck? I’ll take better pictures tomorrow. Driver‘s door is most notable in this picture.

I took Dodge to arbitration over the poor paint job on the then wife's 1992 Grand Caravan, Dodge would up repainting the whole van due to poor paint job, and it did not cost me a dime.....

You’re still under the 3yr and as long as you’re not over 36k take it in to your nearest dealer and let them look at it. That’s what warranties are for, it doesn’t matter where you bought it. I’ve taken mine into a dealer where I did not buy my truck from and had warranty work done, no issues.

Yep. I bought my '22 out of state and had to have the hood repainted under warranty. Local dealer was great to work with and did a great job.

Thanks for the replies. I guess this isn’t a cross the board issue i’m just lucky like that.

My 2025 Laramie has an area under the passenger front door that looks thin, flat and orange peel like. Its just above the drip edge approximately. a foot long and 3" wide. I took it in and the dealer body shop wasn't surprised saying a lot of new ford and Ram trucks come in like that nowadays. They said to do a proper repair the entire side of the cab would need sprayed.
I think I'll just leave it, not real noticeable and it may come out worse.
