- I read a while back that Ford has a "silent" recall for a paint
- problem with their trucks (blue if I remember)
-
- Well I have a 1988 GMC (Secret Service dark blue) that seems to be
- just chipping away. I went to the dealer yesterday and inquired as to why
- this was happening. The body shop manager took a look at the truck, said
- x "Yup, paint delamination. We can fix you up for only the $100 deductable".
-
- Well a few thoughts jumped to my mind:
-
- 1) I expected the worst..like it was all my fault and I would pay
- through the nose.
-
- 2) In the little time he examined the vehicle, he was quite
- confident that it would only cost the $100 Deductable..Gee
- I don't have any "extend warranty".
-
- 3) He didn't say, but I bet he had seen this before and GM
- is aware of it.
-
- SO I ask the great wisdom of the net..Has anyone out experienced this
- problem or have heard of it from the GM side? Has anyone actually had
- this work done?
-
- Thanks
