On the pillar between the back side window and rear window, my paint is peeling. Has anyone else experienced this?
what year cav? could just be poor adheasion from the plant or just showing its age , gm did use a water based paint at one point in time and some of the paints did peal after a while

^^^ya, good luck with that one. GM wont do anything for you most likely. they're very good at dismissing things like that. especially if you didnt buy the car brand new from a GM lot, your prolly SOL.
if you bought it new, march back into the dealership it SHOULD still be under warranty...
if you got it used, you're SOL, because the previous owner could have either had it repainted or wrecked it, then it would be on whatever shop did the work (good luck finding that out if that's the case)
Only solution is to have it repainted. If you have any areas of exposed metal, get it taken care of ASAP... as it will rust, and rust quickly.
back in the 60's or 70's and i think 80's a bunch of car makers had issues with paint peeling off the cars , and what happend is that the car makers paid to have the cars repainted
