Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Paint failed. came off as if it were washing off. problem worseded to the point of getting to bare metal on roof of car. all horizontal surfaces effected (hood, trunk, roof, and tops of fenders). entire car needed to be repainted. contacted ford regarding the problem. they claimed "the cars' vin didn't qualify for reimbursement". i feel they were not entirely truthful. this paint problem was far too bad and covered too much of the car not to be defective. i feel ford should pay most if not alll of the repainting cost. i am the original owner of this vehicle.
