I see many of these cars and vans that look like they've been peeled and burned and it seems they are mostly Chryslers. It struck me again this morning driving to work when I saw two.

They were required to change the formulation of their paint to meet strict air quality standards or if the chemicals were found in the ground water of your state. The chemical(s) that prevented this oxidation had to be removed and replaced with other chemicals that do not last that long. If you drive by a car dear storage lot you will see cars that have white sheets of plastic on the trunk, hood and the tops of the cars to protect them from the sun. I had a Dodge years ago that did that. There was nothing that could be done to correct it - I had to get it repainted.

Paints only peel when body isn't prepped properly.
Production lines don't get the prep right because of lack of human eyes. Photo cells check for finished work, not quality.

Probably the same thing which caused the pealing in the GM products...Bad Base Paint.
Seems neither company backed it up. One good reason not to buy American, eh?

Probably quality..
I believe that car makers tend to lower the manufacture cost so they can get more benefit from the customers.

It happened in 89 to GM products--POOR UNDERCOATING was to blame then.Ask your dealer if there was a re-call.
