NHTSA Complaint #11041340 — 2012 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE

THE PAINT ALONG THE TOP OF THE CAR WINDSHIELD IS BUBBLING UP, RUSTING, PEELING ACROSS THE TOP OF THE WINDSHIELD LINE. IT CONTINUES PROGRESSIVELY TO GET WORSE ALL ALONG THE TOP OF THE WINDSHIELD. WE HAD A FEW CAR REPAIR CENTERS LOOK AT THE CAR- THEY HAD TO HAVE MULTIPLE PEOPLE COME OUT AND LOOK AT IT BECAUSE THEY HAD NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE IT. THEY SAID THE PAINT WAS EXTREMELY THICK ON THE ROOF AND ALONG THE WINDSHIELD LINE. IT SHOULD NEVER BE THAT THICK. THEY SAID THIS SHOULD BE FIXED IN A MANUFACTURER RECALL AS IT IS A MANUFACTURING DEFECT AND IS PROBABLY AFFECTING OTHER CARS PAINTED AT THE SAME TIMEFRAME AS MINE. THE PAINT ISSUE CONTINUES TO GET WORSE. THE CAR REPAIR ESTIMATORS SAID THE ROOF AND SURROUNDING WINDSHIELD PAINT NEED TO BE REPLACED OR THIS WILL CONTINUE TO CORRODE. THIS CAR HAS NEVER BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT OR HAD THE WINDSHIELD REPLACED.
