Dents in the hood keep reappearing. This happened 4 times and dealership fixed vehicle 3 times. These dents were on the hood near the glass on driver's side over top of the hinge area. Consumer has been in contact with GM and his dealership. Consumer was suing GM under the lemon law. The Ohio state attorney generals office gave the consumer this phone number. The better business bureau has seen the video of the vehicle and has already been involved. Consumer thought that the metal that was made out of the hood had a flaw in it. Technicians felt that the weather may have been an issue. Consumer had this vehicle looked at by numerous specialists. Consumer was leaving the hood as it was until the lawsuit was settled. Consumer stated that GM refused to fix the vehicle.
