Consumer Description

I BELIEVE THAT THE HYUNDAI SONATA 2009 A HAS A PAINT DEFECT PROBLEM. I NOW HAVE 12 PAINT CHIPS ON THE HOOD WHICH I BELIEVE ARE THE RESULT OF PAINT FLAKING OFF. I DO NOT RECALL ONCE HEARING A ROCK HIT THE HOOD AND YET I HAVE 12 CHIPS AND NOW ONE SIMILAR CHIP NEAR THE TRUNK. THERE ARE NO DENTS THAT WOULD INDICATE ROCKS OR OTHER OBJECTS HITTING THE HOOD. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALER AND SPOKE TO THE MANAGER WHO TOLD ME THAT THEY WERE A RESULT OF NORMAL WEAR. I DO NOT AGREE AND A QUICK LOOK THROUGH THE INTERNET INDICATES THAT I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE WITH THE PROBLEM. *TR
