All the plastic? has faded to a lighter color of orange. My dealer said it was no problem to repaint til he checked my milage. Warranty on paint is 3 yrs or 36,000 miles, too bad. My question, of course was , "What does milage have to do with fading paint?" It coulda set still for 3 years and still faded. Kinda ignorant answer on his part. Anyway, I'll get it fixed myself and then wait for the other 4500 comp orange Mustangs to complain and hope we get a recall. This was a problem in the 70's for Pontiac and Corvettes, but I thought technology had improved in the past 30 years. _____________________________ tommyd04gt Post #: 1

If you got that many miles say 6 months after you bought it, they still would not do warranty work. As the phrase goes, "They screw you at the drive thru". < Message edited by techmanbd -- 11/28/2007 4:25:39 PM > _____________________________ 2006 Mustang GT Tungston - Hurst Comp/pro shifter Infinity KAPPA682.7CF, BasslinkII sub and 4SC Module 1990 Ranger 4.0 2004 Triumph Daytona 955i - Yellow (in reply to tommyd04gt) Post #: 2
