I have some pitting on my chrome surround on the center console...
Does your truck live outside in the hot sun? How bad is the pitting?

No, she’s a garage queen... it’s not terrible, but slightly noticeable.
Weird, and it won’t wipe off? I’ve had similar spots on the chrome on my steering wheel from sneezing...

lol, sneezing...
No, they will not wipe off. They were there since the day I picked up the vehicle and won't rub off.
That's such a cop out. It isn't too much to ask that Ford manufacture their cosmetic trim correctly. Every other manufacturer including Kia manages it somehow. Now if it turns out to be caused by idiot detailers at the dealership, well then hang 'em high.
It’s not picky to expect a spanking brand new car to meet certain expectations. Even if it is a Ford it should look new and have chrome trim without pitting.

Your right, if it were an Italian exotic it would be completely no functional and useless to me.
I've got a 2014 BMW X6M and an 2007 Ram 3500 Diesel dually........ neither of which have chrome pitting issues. And this is taking into account the fact Dodge's are known for having horrible paint and finishes.
This is a major manufacturer supplier issue that I promise you will end up being recalled.
Not to mention the passenger side fender piece and headlight had about a 1/4 in misalignment compared to the drivers side.
Again, this is not a hugely noticeable issue yet still not acceptable on a vehicle that cost over $70k.
I made the dealer fix all the pitting they claimed was rail dust even though it was ONLY on the chrome trim, and they lined of the fender and light beautifully. Was supposed to take home today, but there was a recalled released yesterday so just left it for them to address.
