Consumer Description

THE CLEAR COAT ON MY CAR IS BUBBLING AND THEN FLAKING OFF. I HAVE MULTIPLE LARGE SECTIONS OF MY CAR WITH THE CLEAR COAT BUBBLING UP AND FLAKING OFF. IT LOOKS HORRENDOUS. ON TOP OF THAT, EVERYTIME THERE IS ANY MOISTURE IN THE AIR OR IT RAINS, THE DOOR HANDLES BECOME DOTTED. MY CAR IS PATRIOT RED PEARL AND THE DOTS ARE A PINKISH RED. IT IS VERY ODD. THE DEALERS WILL TYPICALLY REPAINT THE HANDLES BUT THE DOTS WILL STILL APPEAR. MY BIGGEST CONCERN RIGHT NOW IS THE QUALITY OF PAINT AND CLEAR COAT THAT IS APPLIED ON THE CAR. I WOULD REALLY LIKE TO SEE MY CAR, AND MANY OTHER ENTHUSIASTIC MITSUBISHI ECLIPSE OWNERS CARS TAKEN CARE OF. (I OWN A 2000 ECLIPSE) THANKS! *LA
