“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. …”
