Consumer Description

I HAVE A 2001 FORD MUSTANG. ABOUT 6 MONTHS AGO, I NOTICED A SMALL AREA THAT THE CLEARCOAT WAS PEELING. NOW IT IS COMING OFF IN SHEETS AND MY PAINT HAS FADED THAT IS LOOKS LIKE A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT COLOR. I'VE READ NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ON OTHER MESSAGE BOARDS FROM OTHERS HAVING THE SAME ISSUE. I EVEN FOUND A SERVICE BULLETIN THAT FORD ISSUED INSTRUCTING PAINT VENDORS HOW TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM. I WOULD THINK THAT IF THAT MANY PEOPLE ARE HAVING THIS ISSUE THAT FORD HAD TO ISSUE A BULLETIN OF THIS SORT, THAT THERE WOULD BE RECALL AND FORD WOULD BE FINANCIALLY RESPONSIBLE. IT IS THE RIGHT THING TO DO. NOW, I HAVE TO PAY FOR A PAINT JOB THROUGH NO FAULT OF MY OWN. *TR
