Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I have a 2001 white honda accord. i purchased the car used in july 2004 and it was purchased from a honda dealership. it was a "honda certified used car," and i purchased the additional warranty for it. over the past year, i have noticed the paint is starting to stain. i have kept the car waxed, at least 1 time a year since i got it, but even this doesn't help. the paint is starting to bubble up and flake off...like blisters bursting open. there are several spots like this on the car. also, every time i run through something on the road, the white paint stains. it will not come out during a hand washing or waxing. i took it to honda, and they would not help. i took it to a local shop that is very reputable in the area and was told there is no clear coat left on the car, and it appears to have been a problem when the original paint was applied. *jb
