Mosaic Black Paint Issue
I guess yet another car with the paint issues. I got my mosaic black 2SS on 4/29 in Bellevue, WA. I see the discoloration only when there is good sunlight (which is pretty rare in the PNW :P) and hence has taken me this long to notice it. I need to contact my dealer and was wondering what the resolution is supposed to be in these cases. I just noticed the discoloration in the trunk and the trunk lid. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

You either live with it or have them pay to have your favorite body shop repaint those spots. Only a really cool dealer would consider getting you a different car and there's no way I'd ever trust a dealer body shop to prep and paint better than factory. You try to push for a replacement car but I don't see it happening

I have heard Black Mosaic is a beautiful color but I have to say it certainly doesn't photograph well at all

It had but I think all theirs were much worse.

How does a car with this many paint defects even get through quality control? Weird.

Because the QC needs more QC.

They set a precedence with other members. If I were you if make them eat the cost like they should and get you a new car. The longer you wait the harder it'll be.

OP,
Have a look at this thread. The person who posted it was involved in a buy back but I never did see the conclusion of his adventure. http://www.camaro6.com/forums/showthread.php?t=440789 |
