Consumer Description

THE PAINT ON MY CAR HAS EITHER NOT CURED CORRECTLY AT THE FACTORY, OR IS TOO SOFT. AFTER DRIVING THE CAR FOR A FEW MONTHS THE PAINT IS CHIPPING OFF AND THE CAR LOOKS WORSE THAN MY 7 YEAR OLD HONDA ACCORD. THIS IS NOT A SAFETY CONCERN, BUT WILL DEFINITELY CAUSE THE CAR TO RUST VERY SOON. THIS SHOULD NOT HAPPEN AFTER 6 MONTHS OF DRIVING. IF YOU SEARCH ONLINE, THIS IS NOT AN ISOLATED INCIDENT AND ALMOST ALL FIT OWNERS ARE NOTICING THAT THERE IS A SERIOUS ISSUE WITH THE PAINT ON THE CAR THAT WILL CAUSE THE BODY OF THE CAR TO START TO RUST VERY QUICKLY. *TR
