I've noticed this defect in the silvering of my 2018 Ducato-based motorhome. It's in the same place both sides, and appears to be a common issue. Does Fiat have a replacement policy for this?

They accepted my claim for similar degradation of the reflector just before the end of the warranty period. Also a 2018 build. It was only on one headlight but the pair were replaced. The parts took about 6 months to come - it was back when there were supply issues with the LED DRL units even for new vans.

I'm way out of warranty unfortunately, bought the mh 5 years ago, only noticed a couple of days ago.
 
Might be worth asking Fiat, some manufacturers will extend the warranty for a issue they discovered later with a inferior part.. (y)
