Bad Honda Paint
I know this has been brought up before, but I can't believe a class
action lawsuit or recall hasn't occurred yet. How many of you have paint on your Honda that chips like mad? My Accord is a little over 1 year old and probably has 15 chips on the hood. It's never been on gravel, and I keep my distance from the car in front of me. Today I noticed something odd right on the front edge of my hood. It appears that a rock or similar object had hit it, but instead of a paint chip coming off, part of the surrounding area had cracked and lifted! This can't be typical of a decent paint job. Has anyone had any luck getting a response out of your dealer or Honda? |

This has been discussed before and I think the big reason is that paint is
inherently less durable because of EPA/environmental impacts of paint materials. |

We're ALL screwed. With goofy formulations like latex-based clear
coat, (nothing like God intended), the paint is generally going to suck. If you want great paint, make sure your car comes from Japan or someplace far, far away from the U.S. air police. They don't have to worry about polution and do a good job with good materials. |
