Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: The paint on the truck started bubbling up and bursting off when the vehicle was just over a year old.i contacted the regional office. they sent a person down who tried to tell me that the paint was bubbling up and peeling off because of the ozone. i explained to him that there were older vehicles in the junk yard that had better paint jobs than my truck. i was told that if i had bought the additional warranty with the vehicle, they would take care of it. i told him that if his vehicle was as good as advertised, that i should not need the additional warranty. as it was, i got the 7/70,000, but that did not cover the paint. i was totally dissatisfied with the regional office. i wrote a letter that was never answered. i even called the main chrysler office with no response forthcoming.
