Paint peeling off vehicle.
Paint is chipping and peeling along upper windshield. There have been no rocks or hail or any other reason for this to happen. A flake came off one day and as time went by I began to notice more areas. Upon a google search of chevy forums I find that this is not an uncommon issue, right down to the specific year/make/model and area of damage.
Paint has peeled off above the windshield, paint looks very thin and brittle. Dashboard has two cracks near the passenger airbag. I am worried that if the airbag every went off the piece of plastic will be shot off and be a piece of shrapnel in an accident.
Paint has continued to chip off the body of the vehicle in large sections. The body shops have commented that they have seen numerous issues involving Chevrolet paint. Chevrolet knows the primer under the paint is defective. Chevrolet has not done anything to correct this issue.
After taking a 780 mile round trip to missouri from texas, when filling up I noticed that the paint had peeled off in large chunks at the hood and roof. Has several small areas that the paint is chipping. It looks as if the paint will not adhere to the body anymore.
Paint is peeling on roof. Has been for well over a year. Gm dealer said it was from a stone bruise, and I was out of warranty period. Peeling above windshield is from drivers side all the way to passenger's side. Hood is now starting to peel.
