“Decals on front bumper and drivers side door were pealing off. These were both replaced on service order dated 6-25-98. This however took 3 trips, 3 different days and about 2 weeks time to complete. Decals are now beginning to peal off again. This time the passenger's side door is joining in on the pealing. I took the truck to the dealer where I purchased it from and they said, stone chips on frt, pass. Door has ding from another vehicles door stone chips -damage not warrantable-striped are well adhered . I found this rather amusing because I can take a hose and spray them off. …”
