| Description of the problem | Driving in the ne after the highway dept. Spread the slurry to combat ice my brand new jeep grand cherokee 2017, color ivory, stained. The truck was driven on the highway as well as secondary rouds. After washing the vehicle i discovered the wheel well and its sides stained from the slurry. Brought it to meadowlands of carmel where it was purchased. They indicated they had seen this before however chrysler will not cover chemical reaction. This tells me they are aware of the issue and have produced a product that cannot handle normal use. This in reality is a defect in the paint. Chrysler case number 31176230 |
