Called MacIntyre in Sydney Nova Scotia and they told me it was not their problem, not even offering a solution, I see there is a class action against GM for paint peeling problems in the USA but have not found one I can join in Canada, does anyone know if there is a Canadian class action

Update from Mar 26, 2024: This was the response to my complaint to GM This is clearly a recall issue that GM as not listening to, apparently the class action has been dropped. Where do we go now. Interestingly, yesterday was collecting my car from a parking lot and saw another GMC Terrain parked next to mine with the identical areas on the hood with the paint peeling ----------------------------------------------------------------------- GM Response Dear Peter:

At this time based on the information provided to us, the total cost for diagnosis and repairs would be at your expense.

We apologize for any trouble associated with this situation and understand how distressing it can be.

It is always our goal to assist our customers as much as we can, but it is not always possible.

Sincerely,

When you notice that your paint on the hood of your vehicle starts peeling and the next thing you know you see another one. You don't want your vehicle looking like a leopard so you take it to a shop to see how much it would cost to fix, and the shop lets you know that GMC has had paint peeling issues and he recommends calling your local GMC to see if there is a recall. Then you call and the guy helping you out is rude and not helpful. I love the car but the peeling is annoying, and after doing some google search you come to find out that there is a lawsuit regarding the paint.
