| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: The paint is cracking and peeling all over the roof of my 2 1/2 year old mustang. it started as one spot, now there is a large hole with rust underneath it. there are about 13 small cracks in the paint on the roof where it is peeling, and other spots on the hood and front bumper. i have been to my dealer 4-5 times to attempt repair and financial reimbursement, only to get the runaround. a ford rep supposedly looked at it, after ford offered to pay half the $400 estimate, but they have not made attempts to contact me. the dealer is mossy ford in san diego, ca. i have discovered that ford repainted my vehicle before selling it to me as "new". the thickness is 10mm on the paint; average is 3-4. a repainted car is obvious upon inspection of paint specialists. rust from underneath the vehicle has "popped up" and cracked the paint coming from the inside. |
