Description of the problem	Paint is splitting, then blistering and finally popping clear of the primer. This started along both front fender 'seams' where they meet the hood. Problem then began along top and back side of trunk; then rear fenders and finally involved all panels of the vehicle within a one-year period. Primer shows first as a green shade that fades to grey. Gm tells me this is 'excessive ultraviolet exposure' even though vehicle is garage kept - evidently these cars suffer from sunburn? Over 50% of the paint on this vehicle is involved.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
