can you see a defect in the paint? Warranties are for defects not fix alls. I see a chip caused by something striking the car such as a gravel or something else. |

You guys are funny with all the defect & warranty chatter. Its called a rock chip. It happens when you drive the car.
OP any of the touch up repair methods mentioned are better than leaving it as is. Except Mr. Toasty's suggestion is a bit extreme. Pick the one you are ther most comfortable with.

For best results a body shop will need to take a look at it and they will be able to see how much they need to spray to blend it in properly. I'd say around $250 should cover it. It could be more. It all depends on how high up it goes on the A pillar.
You could hit it with a dremel carefully (sand paper might be tough in the small space) to clean up the rust and dab a little paint to keep it from getting worse and just live with it for now. I know Napa can mix up a spray can of pretty much any color on site in a few minutes. The dealer usually can get touchup pens and spray but not sure about that color. I'm guessing it would need to be ordered.
