I purchased a 91 oldsmobile cutlass supreme as a "demo" model from a local dealer. I was the first "titled" owner of the car. From the time I purchased the car in 92, I noticed "splitting or crackling" in the paint of the car. After a few years, it began flaking at the cracked areas and peeling. I mentioned this to the dealer where I purchased the car and took it for regularly scheduled maintenance. They informed that there was nothing they could do since there was no recall on the defect. I left it go, now its getting very bad and rust is starting to form. I am livid! I have taken very good care of the outside with regular cleaning and waxing. Nothing has helped to stop the flaking. When I wash the car with a powerful spray nozzle, it flakes of in large hunks!! Please help! I can't afford to repaint the entire car! It only has 66k miles and I planned to have the car for awhile yet but the appearance is embarrassing through no fault of my own. I contacted gm a few months ago but they told me they could do nothing because I didn't contact them during the warranty period which ended approx two years ago. I told them I did contact the dealer during the warranty time but they told me nothing could be done so I left it go and just assumed they were informing me correctly. Please advise me of what I can do, if anything. I do know of other gm car owners who have had similar paint problems on their vehicles and the problem was taken care of for them. Please help if you can.
