Consumer Description
I bought this 2014 kia sorento about 2 years ago from a small dealer. When I bought it there was minial peeling above my window on my hatch. When I bought my car it was already at 169,000. miles on it. In the last 6 months the paint has rapidly been peeling off on my doors and getting worse on the hatch. My car is currently at 205,866 miles. So in that time it started peeling off in 6 different areas. Over the winter when the first spot peeled we attempted to cover it up with a car paint in a panic afraid that it was going to rust. Although we noticed that the other spots where the paint is peeling and looks to be bare metal isn't even rusting. The thing is with these spots it wasn't starting with a chip then spreading. These spots were bubbling and then breaking and falling off while on the streets and the highway. We are very confused on why the paint is bubbling up then peeling off. After that inital tear in the bubble it continues to peel from there and get worse. Im afraid to was my car because the amount of the amount of paint that will come off. We also noticed that this wasn't the first time it has happend with my car. Like i said I bought it from a small dealer and after the right spot started peeling we started to take a clsoer look and we could see that some of the spots peeling have been previously covered up and resold. I just want my paint fixed for a mistake the manufaturer made.
