It occurred during the initial 3Yr/36000 bumper to bumper warranty, not to mention the 5year corrosion warranty. I have experienced this corrosion paint bubbling and peeling problem on the rear hatch door. Nelson says that “the money needed to even attempt to remedy the problem, is greater than simply the cost of a new paint job, because the underlying Corrosion Defect in the aluminum hood would cause any new paint to bubble and flake as well.”
The Ford F-150 class action lawsuit states that the deficit causes financial damage to customers like Nelson not only because of the damage to the resale value of the vehicle, but because the cost of fixing the problem is significant. Nelson goes on to say that “as more underlying structural components are uncovered” because of the corrosion and peeling, the problem worsens because more of the vehicle is exposed to the environment. Allegedly, the Ford representatives did not provide any warranty help about the damages caused by the defects.Īccording to Nelson, the paint bubbling, peeling, corrosion, and damages decreased the vehicle’s resale value.
The Ford F-150 corrosion class action lawsuit claims that the Ford dealership did not attempt to remedy the problem, even though the vehicle was still under its 5-year Extended Corrosion Warranty. The technician allegedly said that it was probably a defect in the primer, which prevented the paint from adhering to it. The Ford representative at the dealership reportedly asked the technician if they felt that the problem was due to a defect in the paint.
