Clear coat just started peeling in three different places. Roof, hood, and trunk areas are the first and probably not last to peel. Looks terrible! Talked to other people with same problem with clear coat. Hope there is a recall on peeling soon before it consumes my entire car!! Linda W.-Kentucky

I have come across numerous people on here who are having the same problem with the Chevrolet Cobalt as I am. The clearcoat is peeling on my back driver side quarter panel, as well as between the sunroof and windshield! It looks awful, and, in my opinion, shouldn't be happening on this new of a vehicle. It doesn't seem that GM is willing to take care of its owners. I have taken very good care of this car, but it seems to be falling apart right in front of me! Maybe this is why GM needed a bailout, because they build crap that doesn't last, and when something does happen, they do nothing to make it right!!!!

GM white paint is crap. I had a 2006 Colbalt with less than 40,000 miles on it and the white paint was rusting on the doors. My solution was to sell the p.o.s.

Can't believe a car that's only 7 years old has paint chipping from it. It looks horrific and needs to have a recall so it can be fixed. I'm sure many more are having same problem and hope Chevrolet will uphold their reputation by addressing this problem promptly.
