Consumer Description

THE HOOD PAINT STARTED TO DISCOLOR AND APPEAR SPLOTCHY. SINCE THE PAINT WARRANTY WAS ONLY GOOD TO 36,000 MILES, I FIGURED I WOULD BITE THE BULLET AND GET IT PAINTED AT MY COST. BEFORE I GOT THAT DONE THE DAMAGE HAS NOW APPEARED ON THE LEFT FRONT FENDER (BEYOND THE HOOD) AT 62,000 MILES. THIS IS JUST A LOUSY FACTORY PAINT JOB AND I DON'T KNOW IF IT'S WORTH GETTING THE WHOLE CAR REPAINTED. *TR
