Consumer Description

BLACK 2000 MITISUBSHI ECLIPSE BROUGHT BRAND NEW BY MYSELF. THERE IS SOME KIND OF DEFECT IN THE PAINT CAUSING IT TO FADE TO WHITE AND THEN FADE COMPLETELY TO THE BARE METAL. THIS IS JUST IN SPOT ALONG THE HOOD, ROOF AND TRUNK. THIS VEHICLE HAS NOT BEEN WRECKED AND HAS NEVER BEEN ANYWHERE WERE AN "ACID" OF OTHER TYPE OF DAMAGE COULD HAPPEN TO IT. I HAVE SEEN NUMEROUS OTHER BLACK ECLIPSES WITH THIS SAME PROBLEM. I HAVE TALKED WITH AN OWNER OF THE SAME TYPE YEAR MAKE AND MODEL AS MINE AND SHE HAS THE SAME PROBLEM. *TR
