May 2012 Crash

While washing with a microfiber cloth and garden hose with less than 20,000 miles and only 4 years old blizzard pearl paint is peeling off in large chunks. 1.5 years out of warranty. Toyota will not make this right. I realize safety may not be eminent but in the long run rusted metal will leak water in electrical components.
