Consumer Description

THE CAR IS A 2001 MITSUBISHI ECLIPSE. THERE WERE NO SPECIFIC EVENTS LEADING TO THE FAILURE, BUT THE PAINT ON THE TRUNK AND ROOF OF THE CAR HAS OXIDIZED AND APPEARS TO HAVE DISSOLVED. THE CAR IS OUTSIDE OF WARRANTY, AND WE WILL NEED TO HAVE IT REPAINTED ON OUR OWN. BASED UPON MY INTERNET RESEARCH IT APPEARS THAT THIS PROBLEM IS WIDESPREAD. *AK
