STRUCTURE:BODY
WHEN I BOUGHT MY TRUCK IT WAS JUST THREE YEARS OLD AND 50% OF THE PAINT WAS PEELING OFF IT. IT'S SILVER AND SINCE THEN I'VE SEEN MANY OF THE SAME COLOR, HAVEING THIS PROBLEM: FORD AND CHEVY HAD A PAINT RECALL; WHY WON'T DODGE? NOW THE TRUCK IS 80% PEELING, PERSONALLY I THINK IT WAS BECAUSE OF BAD PRIMER. I HAVE TALKED TO FOUR DODGE DEALERSHIPS IN THE AREA, THEY ALL TOLD ME THEY HAVE HAD A PROBLEM WITH THAT COLOR. THEY SAID THEY CAN'T BELIEVE THE MANUFACTURE WON'T STAND BEHIND THEIR WORK AND COMPENSATE THE OWNERS.
