NHTSA Complaint #10538135 — 1999 DODGE DAKOTA

KEPT TRUCK INSIDE SINCE PURCHASE IN 2/25/99 UNTIL THE FALL OF 2009. PARKED TRUCK OUTSIDE UNTIL PRESENT TIME. TRUCK ONLY HAS 32,217 MILES ON IT. MY COMPLAINT IS THAT ALL THE CLEARCOAT IS COMING OFF OR PEELING ALL OVER THE TRUCK. HAVE USED MOTHER'S BRAND SOAP FOR CLEAR COAT FINISHES. HAVE 93 T-BIRD AND 32 FORD WHICH BOTH HAVE CLEARCOAT AND HAVE NO PROBLEM. HAVE SEEM 3 OTHER RED DODGES WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. I THINK DODGE SHOULD STAND BEHIND THEIR PRODUCT, SINCE THE BASECOAT AND CLEARCOAT WAS NOT APPLIED RIGHT. SINCE THE TRUCK ONLY HAS 32000 MILES ON IT. PLEASE REPLY.
