1997 Lumina has paint peeling on the trunk and sides of car. I have seen this on several other white painted Luminas around town and am concerned that this is a paint defect. This peeling process has been going on for some time now but has recently gotten a lot worse. I took my carl to a local= macco painting place and they say that they have seen this a lot in with gm cars from 1997. They even had one getting repainted as we spoke. Took this to a gm dealer and they could not do anything about this. I have a white Lumina that I cannot wash the car at the car wash because the paint is stripped. Also I have a problem with the engine oil light comes on every time I start the car. It will last two or three minutes. Had it checked at a local car dealership and they could not find any problems in their computer even though they saw the problem.

On driver's rear side, approximately 5 inches from the gas tank, there was a huge bubble under the paint. A few days later the paint broke off, leaving a large area without paint.
Paint peeling from car in several very large areas. One spot nearly all of right rear quarter panel is now gone. A local mechanic. , and two local body men agree this car has been repainted. I purchased it from the dealer new "demonstrator" but was told it had never been wrecked. But know several families around here with 96 models, all are peeling. The same with my and every other 85 model grey chevy. What can we do?.
