I contacted PPG, who supplies the body shop with the paint, and they told me they would make it right, when the dealership was reluctant to have to fixed it for me under their "lifetime" warranty.They have repainted it twice so far. It's already cracking again, so I think I'll have them do it again this fall. Body shops in general just seem to suck at life. You should see the one at the dealership I work at now, they leave stuff loose and disconnected, AND the body work is horrible!
Yeah, its a shame. I really wanted to go to a local guy which would have actually totalled the vehicle and the damn adjuster pretty much made me go through this dealership.The good side is that it saved me time from having to repair the door rust and the quarter panel rust on that side
