Ram 1500 SLT Laramie 5.2L

There should be a class action lawsuit against Dodge for poor quality paint in all 1999 through 2002 Models. I see the same malady on all vehicles of these years I see on the street. Paint Peeling and fading quickly..my dodge ram's rooftop paint is degrading quickly and other parts of the truck I'm sure will follow. Shame on this car company for allowing this to happen and not owning up to it. I believe the paint manufacturer should be held liable as well...I paid a lot of money in 2000 for this SLT Laramie Luxury pick up truck only to see the paint degrade beyond reproach.

Ram 1500 4x4 Quad Cab 5.2L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 56,000 miles

the bumper had a bit of chrome peeling, I touched it with a fair amount of pressure and went right through it, in many places I might add.I thought it would be a good idea to put a new one on ,not only for the looks but for the safety factor.
