FOR THE LAST COUPLE YEARS MY CLEARCOAT HAS BEEN PEELING OFF LIKE A BAD SUNBURN. IT LOOKS HORRIBLE. IT'S HAPPENING ON THE ENTIRE HOOD AND ON BOTH FRONT FENDERS. I HAVE A 92 PONTIAC BONNEVILLE.

I WAS JUST TOLD RECENTLY THAT I COULD FILE A COMPLAINT BECAUSE EVEN THOUGH THE AGE OF THE CAR , THE COATING SHOULD NOT BE COMING OFF LIKE THIS.

LOSS OF FUEL ON RIGHT HAND TURN, CHRONIC WHEN FUEL IS AROUND 1/3 LEVEL, CAUSED BY INCORRECT FUEL STRAINER POSITION. THERE IS A SERVICE BULLETIN ABOUT THIS PROBLEM.

TRANSMISSION MOUNT BOLTS HAVE FALLEN OUT AT LEAST 3 TIMES EVEN THOUGH REPLACED WITH THE CORRECT BOLTS AND CORRECT LOC-TITE. WHEN THEY FALL OUT THE DRIVETRAIN DROPS ONTO MY STEERING ASSEMBLY CAUSING IT TO PULL ONE DIRECTION OR ANOTHER OR SOMETIMES IT FEELS LIKE IT WANTS TO GO LEFT AND RIGHT AT THE SAME TIME.
