Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“Paint has been chipping for quite some time, but recently a large chunk of snow slid off the roof as I was driving, along with the snow was a rather large section of paint, obscuring my view.I was forced to pull off to the side of the road to avoid an accident and remove the section of paint. This was certainly a hazard and there are more paint chips ready to fall off at anytime.”
