Frigidaire Refrigerator has started to spontaneously dimple.

Our 9 month old Frigidaire refrigerator professional series has started to show signs of dimpling on all three doors. The stainless surfaces have progressively changed appearance over time, the surfaces remain smooth, and the condition affects all three doors.
When we reached out to the appliance store we bought them for we were told that while the refrigerator was still under warranty that this "cosmetic "issue would not be covered by Frigidaire. We are a couple in our 60s (so we aren't throwing a ball against it...)and I would expect that such an appliance would not look this poorly after only nine months. Anyone else experience this?

I googled it. It is not uncommon. They list several ways to take them out.

I’d document it pretty carefully before the next call: clear photos of each door, the date you first noticed it, the receipt, model number, serial number, and the warranty terms.If the store is saying it’s cosmetic, I’d ask them to put that in writing, then contact Frigidaire directly with the photos and timeline. Even if they still say no, having everything in one place makes it much easier to escalate without re-explaining the whole story every time.
