Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Paint started peeling off in 2000, and by 2003..it was peeling off in chunks weekly. now in 2004, there is hardly any paint on the hood or the top of the cab with other peeling on the other parts as well. the rockwall, tx dodge dealership's rep said he would take care of the defective paint job, and we'd pay $700 toward the paint job. after that estimate, we held off getting it painted because of moving to mississippi, so i went to the howard wilson dodge dealer in flowood, ms. that dealership's rep would not do anything-0. this is not right. why would the texas crysler rep say yes, that the paint peeling off in chunks was an inferior paint job, but the mississippi crysler rep says he will do nothing. i would not need to be painting it at all, if it weren't for the defective paint job. *nm
