After owning my new car for about 3 months, the paint had several chips from road work (debris flying up and hitting it). Insurance covered it, I went to their preferred shop which was probably a huge mistake. I get it back after 3 weeks. They repainted the hood, and the whole side of the car. When I picked it up, it looked fine. It was cloudy and they also had it parked under a pop up car port. One thing I did notice was my headlight wasn't reinstalled properly. The manager told me that I might see "ghosts" pop up after a couple days and to bring it back in and they'll polish it out. Sounded weird. I'm not experienced in this whole repainting process, so I went with it. After a few days there weren't just a few "ghosts", the entire paint job that they did was covered in buffer trails. It looked worse than before I brought it in. I would gladly take a few paint chips than what they left me with. They also put in a new windshield which was overkill. There was a tiny chip in it that barely scratched the surface. After that, my windshield makes an annoying buzzing sound going 80mph (that's the speed limit
). Anyway, the insurance adjuster sent me to a dealership in a larger city because I'm stationed in a small town. They said they'd get it all fixed up and polish it out right. Well the buffer trails came back after just a week or so. I didn't wash it at all. Not even after the fresh paint. Now, I'm taking it back in and I'm worried they're going to just mask the problem. Does anyone have any advice? How do I tell they're going to correct it and not just mask it? My insurance guy said they may have to repaint it. Now, my car only had 300 miles on it when I took it in, and having it repainted twice is killing me.
Here's a few pictures, it looks worse in person though.
