Consumer Description

PAINT ON ROOF OF CAR IS PEELING IN SHEETS TO THE BARE METAL. THE DAMAGE IS ON THE ROOF BETWEEN THE FRONT WINDSHIELD AND SUNROOF. IT APPEARS TO BE A BAD PAINT MIXTURE AT THE PLANT AND HONDA IS NOT ACCEPTING RESPONSIBILITY FOR THIS MANUFACTURING DEFAULT. THIS CAR IS 5 YEARS OLD AND SHOULD NOT BE HAVING ISSUES WITH PAINT PEELING ALL THE WAY TO THE BARE SHEET METAL. I'M CONCERNED AS THE METAL IS NOW EXPOSED AND THE ELEMENTS WILL CAUSE DAMAGE (RUST/CORROSION) TO THE METAL AND COMPROMISE THE STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY OF THE ROOF AND THE METAL THAT HOLDS THE WINDSHIELD.
