Friends,
After reading someone's comments having to do with excessive orange peel and a suggestion that C7 owners with paint issues join together to notify GM of their issues, I took it upon myself to start a petition towards that end.
This thread is not intended to be a forum for bashing GM, but a vehicle for making our voices heard regarding any paint issues that we have personally seen or experienced. Please do not use this thread for ranting or flaming GM. The sole intent of this post and the petition is for the purpose of informing GM of our concerns.
If you have no complaints regarding paint quality, move along. If you are a current owner or a potential future owner, feel free to sign the petition. There is also a place on the petition for comments.
Once the petition reaches 100 signatures, GM will be made aware of it. Signatures can continue to be added beyond that point, but the threshold for notification is 100.
Here is the link to the petition:

I also want to go on the record as saying that I am grateful for the attention GM placed on correcting my paint issues. They were excessive and far beyond your basic orange peel issues. However, as some have recently experienced orange peel, paint runs, and thin paint on more recently delivered Corvettes, I feel that a petition is a reasonable medium for making GM aware of the issues we are continuing to see. I personally saw a new black convertible in a dealership recently that had a terrible amount of orange peel. I have seen other black Corvettes with very little orange peel. Hopefully our united voices will make a difference.
