Fender flares on KR pealing off, anyone else??

Notice a few months ago one of my fender flares is starting to peal off. Not much, you wouldn't notice if you weren't on the ground polishing the step bars, but it's starting to peal.

Took it to Ford, they said they'd need to keep and and send it off to the body shop. Wasn't ready to give the truck up for an extended period so I've held off. Well yesterday I noticed another one is starting to peal off...Guess I need to take it in, but I'm so damn paranoid about one of the lot porters at the dealership denting my truck. I've had it for 15 months with 9k miles and no dents and I want to keep it that way!!

Ah well guess I'm anal.

Anyone else having issues with the fender flares?

Take a walk around the truck with the service writer when you leave it, tell him to take notice that you dont have a single scratch or dent in the truck, if there is though point that out also, you just want it back with out any problems, i have 4 ford trucks all but one the dealer has dented, but they fixed it because of pointing it out to the writer before i left it

Oh that was my plan, but I really don't want to deal with some one fixing it, last thing I want is after market paint with over spray from some bull crap body shop.

I purchased an 08 back in Jan and the fender flares were wharped and peeling off the truck. Apparently there was a recall and they were replaced under warranty. They did have to send the truck to the body shop to match the paint on the bumpers (FX4 pkg).

My '08 F450 has a loose right fender flare. I didn't think it could peel off though. Now, I'm going to go back out there and look it over...

I've had mine re-glued once and then they had to be replaced.
