I WENT TO THE LOCAL DEALER AND WAS TOLD THEY WOULD DO NOTHING. I SEE MANY CHEVY TRUCKS & SUBURBANS WITH PEELING PAINT MOSTLY ON THE HOOD AND FRONT FENDERS, ALTHOUGH IT SEEMS TO BE ALL OVER. I HAVE SEEN INFORMATION IN CONSUMER REPORTS IN REGARDS TO THIS BUT COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING IN YOUR DATABASE. I FEEL THIS IS A WIDESPREAD WELLKNOWN PROBLEM. CAN YOU HELP ME?
