4 Bumper problem of the 1997 Dodge Dakota

Failure Date: 06/01/1998

The front bumper's paint is chipping. When dealer was contacted they blamed the incident on "road salt" though there was no salt on the roads at the time the incident occured. The paint is currently bubbleing up and peeling as this complaint is submitted.

5 Bumper problem of the 1997 Dodge Dakota

Authorized Dodge dealer inspected with employee of Chrysler/ stated there was no defect with manufacturer although I don't feel that it cannot be because this peeling/flaking has not occurred elsewhere on the body of the truck.
