Clear coat has seperated severely on the roof of the truck. Also on the hood of my truck there are two small areas where the clear coat has started to separate. Took truck to two highly respected body shops in our area for an estimate. Both shops quoted in the range of $3,000-3,500. Just for strip repaint of the roof and hood. Holy Moly!!!

Did not take to dealer knowing they will give the scripted answer, "out of warranty nothing we can do for you". That's Dodge code for, (we got our money from you, now you can bend over and kiss your rear-end goodbye, oh, and by the way you know all the millions we took from the tax payers on the bail out, you being one of them we're not going to return the favor to help those of you that are having issues because of our poor design and engineering).

DODGE will never get my business again. If buying a truck comes up in conversation, I tell people to stay clear of Dodge, they refuse to back up their product.

This is only one of several Dodge design & engineering defects that they will not take ownership of and help their customer out.

I called Chrysler, hoping their customer service would be helpful. I was immediately shot down, with my request. Which was, please HELP ME repaint my truck. I wanted to take it to a dealership and have them do it for their cost including labor. I was told due to the mileage of the vehicle Chrysler would not honor any claims on the vehicle.

I then asked the guy, why Chrysler was content putting vehicles on the road that were not built to last as long as a Chevrolet or Ford. His response was I choose not to answer that question. He followed that statement with “due to the age of the vehicle and mileage on the vehicle, Chrysler will not acknowledge any claims on the vehicle”. This proves Chrysler is okay getting the sale and letting the customer spend their own money keeping the purchase “nice”. These guys have been ripping off consumers for years by knowing the paint is an issue, and refusing to even help make it right.

I noticed a small bubble in the clear coat - top center of the truck roof - when I bought it. It was minor then. Over 7 years it evolved into a bare metal spot about the size of a quarter. It needs to be repainted but I'm not putting another dime in this dud of a truck. Bad quality from Chrysler - as usual. I had so many problems with this truck I never could get around to dealing with this one because no one really sees it. If it were a car instead of a truck, it would be more visible - the truck roof is so high, who cares as long as it doesn't rust through. Still...crappy quality of Dodge.

At 40,000 paint on roof started to bubble around 3rd brake light. waited to see if it was just me until 50,000 miles. Took to Dodge & they repainted the roof only. They thought the rest of the truck was fine. at 58,000 miles or 4 years and 3 months I noticed that there were a hole bunch of little dark spots on the paint. I thought it was dirt build up or tree crap. I did not get around to spending the time to clean the clearcoat until 2 months later. when I tried to polish them out by hand with 3m micropolish they would not come out. 1 month latter after I washed it the dark spot became white spots. and a lot more than I saw a month earlier. Turns out the dark spots were where the clearcoat had come off and the paint bellow oxidies. The white spots are where the paint has now come off and the primer is showing through. These spots have developed on the Hood, fenders, doors & door posts, and all over the truckbed. All of the spots are perfectly round. when you look through a looking glass you can see the different layers of the paint in a single spot. DON't BUY DODGE. Dodge now has me doing the wait for us to call you thing witch is BS they just want the warranty to expire!!! I have had nothing but problems with this thing.
