I WAS JUST MADE AWARE OF THE PAINT PROBLEM AND I TRIED TO FOLLOW YOUR SUGGSTIONS GIVEN ON YOUR WEB SITE. JUST LIKE YOU STATED I GOT NOWHERE. THE DEALER TOLD ME I WAITED TOO LONG AND AM NO LONGER COVERED. WHEN I CALLED THE 800 NUMBER FOR CHEVROLET, INITIALLY I WAS TOLD THEY WOULD REPAINT MY TRUCK BUT THEN AFTER THEY TALKED TO THE DEALER I WENT TO THEY CHANGED THEIR MIND. SO NOW I AM READY TO TAKE TO SMALL CLAIMS COURT.
