| Paint on the roof and hood of our 1991 chev 2500 extra cab pickup started peeling off. i checked several times as to why my pickup did not meet the recall on the paint job that so many other gm vehicles had received. my husband and son finished peeling off the hood and repainted it but hadn't gotten to the roof. in driving around i see lots of pickups that just the hood and roof have no or little paint left on them. | |||
