They were actually pretty good about it. The dealer (Mossy Ford, San Diego) does not have a body but they outsource all their body work to Guy Hill Cadillac 1/4 mile down the street from them.
HOWEVER, when I bought the car new it was already 1.5 years old having been assembled in April '97. I bought it on October 5 '98.
For $18K out the door I got the car 1 day shy of going to a dealer-only auction including a 6 year/100K warranty.
But I did pay $500 extra for the Finish protection (basically Teflon) but it has payed off handsomely so far. Maybe this helped getting the car redone so often w/o questioning, including replacement of a peeling steering wheel and a passenger door panel which started to bubble, and last week they also replaced the rear parcel shelf due to sun fading.
