My car is turning pink!

I purchased my summit white Camaro in January. Recently I started noticing faint pink spots spear under the paint hear and there. BUT now it's everywhere and full blown visible! What the hell! What do I do?

Holy sh*t. That robot must off had some reddish paint mixed! So far this is the only white with this pink, out of many.

Take it to the dealer, it should be under warranty.

I doubt red was mixed in, if it were it would be more spread out and not spotted looking like it is.

Question to the OP, did you wash it with something out of the ordinary, or was there a car wash that you recently took it to? It almost looks like something was left to dry and began spotting.

Seems like you got yourself a free new paint job.

Nope I use mothers car soap and wash and wax it every weekend myself. That's how I noticed it at first. Trust me I have tried to see it it can be wiped off but it is def under the clear at LEAST! It looks like primer or filler showing thru to me. Taking it Monday to a dealership with a body shop. Will keep you all updated. Seriously pissed off. One thing after the other with this BRAND NEW car.......

A couple of quick things, and these are just my own personal opinions. The car does not have a "pink" primer base nor would they have ever used that much bondo to try and fill that many voids. Not off the production line. Now, you have had the car since January, so I wish you luck but doubt they will entertain this as their problem. It almost looks as if by chance something coated your car at some point and may have "burned" into your clear coat. You say you wash and wax it, have you tried buffing it out at all to see if any of it comes out?

Have you tried a swirl remover compound polish on the marks to see if that will remove the pinkish marks?
