“I have been experiencing major paint peeling off my 1994 Buick Regal. It is occuring in several places on the hood and quarter panel. It blisters and then it just flakes off. The 1993 GM press release describes my exact problem, stating that they would cover the cost off repainting a car within the first six years. So, unfortunatly I'm probably out of luck, but I was going to make an attempt at getting GM to cover some of the cost. The car has just under 105,000 miles and otherwise in very good condition.”
NHTSA complaint #10069162, filed 2004-01, 105,000 miles“The paint is peeling from both doors of my car and now has also started on the roof. I first noticed it in october, however, it started getting worse in december. Large pieces have peeled off the driver's door and smaller pieces have come off of the passenger's door. I went to the closest dealership to me, granite run, in media, pa and they said the vehicle is out of warranty. Buick regional also said the same thing and that it is out of the goodwill period. I have sent a letter to Buick in flint, mi and am awaiting a response. My local body shop has said it will cost at least $ 600 to fix. …”
