IN 1996, WE NOTICED SOME BLISTERING ON THE HOOD OF OUR VAN. BY THAT SAME SUMMER, THE PAINT HAS BEGUN TO PEEL OFF. SINCE THEN, THE HOOD IS ALMOST VOID OF ALL PAINT AND THE PAINT ON THE ROOF HAS ALSO PEELED OFF AND IS RUSTING BADLY. AFTER ASKING SOME CASUAL QUESTIONS CONCERNING THIS, IT WAS OUR UNDERSTANDING THAT NOTHING COULD BE DONE AND IT WAS OUR LOSS. WE NOW REALIZE THIS IS NOT TRUE. AFTER SOME RESEARCH, WE HAVE FOUND MANY COMPLAINTS OF THE SAME AND SINCE THERE IS IS NO CLASS ACTION AGAINST CHRYSLER, WE WOULD LIKE TO PROCEED FURTHER TO HAVE THIS TAKEN CARE OF. IF CHRYSLER DOES NOT WANT TO ASSUME LIABILITY OR A GESTURE OF GOOD WILL TO HAVE OUR VAN REPAINTED, WE ARE PREPARED TO TAKE THIS TO SMALL CLAIMS COURT.*AK
