| Description of the problem | Almost immediately after purchasing this car, i noticed that the paint seemed to be easily scratched and chipped. I have multiple chipped places on the car that are beginning to rust. In addition, the clear coat is getting thin or something on the trunk of the car and the paint is looking very dull. I always take care of the car and washed and waxed it often. This weak paint job will most definitely affect resale value. In addition, the plastic pieces that are on the undercarriage of the car have come loose and fallen off or had to be taken off one by one. |
