Ya gotta wonder why!

This day and age you would think they would use a paint that doesn't bubble and flake off. I know it's just a heat shield and I hate to be nit picky, but it's not easy living with OCD. Come on POLARIS!

Mine is doing the same thing.

What part of the machine is that on can you give a zoomed out photo?

gotta remember most of these parts are from and made in China where they make cheap parts.

Rear exhaust cover

It’s like it wasn’t prepped properly or more likely not high temp paint.

My adv2 same thing

Mine too....on the drivers side of the shield!

Mine too. New one is on order.

Did your dealer replace and confirm the paint issue is fixed? I am just rolling with mine as is for now until we see what the aftermarket comes up with for bumpers, guards, etc for these machines. Hoping Thumper Fab rolls out some cool bumpers soon.

I told them to ship me the new one, so I could keep the old one. I'll have it blasted and powder coated to match the machine color.

Add me to the victim list. Final QA testing by Polaris would have had to confirm this. A standard feature on a new model that we didn't have to pay extra for. Also, would be nice to know if those of you who had Polaris replace these: Did the new one behave the same way or no?

Currently waiting to hear from dealership to see if Polaris will replace under warranty.

UPDATE: Polaris is replacing under warranty.
