is this normal for just being over 1year old, or a warranty issue?

Wouldn't hurt talking to your dealer and see what they say. I think the band has a 5 year warranty"The pig is an amazing animal. You feed a pig an apple and it makes bacon. Let's see Michael Phelps do that" - Jim Gaffigan

I understand completely. Bring the issue to your dealer.Sandy Springs & Dawsonville Ga

Do you mind posting another picture say 180 degrees from this one? Or even one 90 degrees?
Did you assemble the egg yourself?

Highly unusual. They will replace that I’m sure.

looks like the nut loosened the paint when installing the handle
South of Columbus, Ohio. -
So I made it to my dealer today and showed him my picture of the handle w/o paint and asked it was a warranty issue and the response was no but if I brought it in to him he’d paint it for me....
when I got home I looked up the BGE warranty and sure enough the hardware is guaranteed for 5yrs BUT, not including any cosmetic issues..MMx, my not so large BGE

And contact corporate. I wouldnt eat that.

I wouldn’t call that a cosmetic issue. The coating failed and has head to rust development which will lead to failure.
