| Description of the problem | Vehicle had bird droppings on hood. Washed off same day and ate right through paint down to metal. Jeep will not cover repairs. Noticed that clear coat either does not exist on this vehicle or is very thin. Noticed other spots where bird droppings have left marks on paint and chips in paint all over vehicle. I have owned several vehicles and never have seen paint this bad. *jb |
