| Anthony Cuntala | 1996 Probe GT, Black | the hood, has little white spider webs the roof looks like it my be starting to good them, and the some hair line scrathes. The spiders webs seem to be were the sun beats on most.but anyway i pay all this money for this car and it looks horrible. Ford better do something about it. |
| Jonathan Thompson | 1996 Probe GT, Black | Crows feet all over hood, entire rear bumper looks like it has industrial fallout all over it and will not polish out. All of the paint is not a clean paint job. Looks like a three year old kid spray painted the car and then it was clear coated. |
| Kylie Mitzel | 1996 Probe GT, Black | The paint on the car is very dissappointing. There are tiny white lines covering the entire front end of the car including the hood. The problem lies under the clear coat, so there is no way of fixing it. I also have a problem with spiderwebbing, yet another problem that can not be fixed. On top of this, there are rust spots on the hood and doors. I, too, have spend a lot of money on this car and it just looks terrible. |
| Rick Stanich | 1996 Probe GT, Black | Crows feet and a million little white lines throughout. Can't have this removed professionally. The marks are all under the clear coat.... I've spent over $500.00 trying to get this paint to look good. Nothing works. |
| Ilya Ostrovsky | 1996 Probe GT, Green | Crow feet and cracks, and , clear coat breakdown. All hood, headlights, as well side wings and doors. |
| Dave Badics | 1996 Probe GT, Medium Alpine Clearcoat Metallic | My paint has thousands of tiny scratches under the clearcoat, even though it has been meticulously maintained. It look horrible up close, and the car has been garaged and has only 29k miles. I also have a strange discoloration on one spot on the hood. Its only visible in certain light, but its not attractive by any means. |
| James M. Warren | 1996 Probe GT, Purple | Fading paint, Bad chipping on the front bumper and also on the rear. Scratches extremely easily. |
| Brian J. McMurray | 1996 Probe GT, Red | I wax it about once a month and yet the paint is oxidizing on the hatchback all the way around to the dirves side door. The front hood has alot of little scraches and niks in the hood and that is starting to oxidize as well. Since i am the president of Florida Probe Owners Club it is hard for me to go to meets without worrying or haveing to explain my paint to other members. |
| Leandra (surname not supplied) | 1996 Probe GT, Red | Paint is not exactly oxidized, but has dull paint patches on the hood. I constantly take care of my car's natural paint job and it is a beauty..fixed up..., but I may need to re-do the paint??? |

| Robert Kapuscinski | 1996 Probe SE | I have little scratches under the clear coat all over my car. The worst is on the front end. I wash my car regularly, and the car always looks horrible. I have given up trying to fix the problem. The only solution is to get it repainted. |

| Kara Ann Kearns | 1996 Probe SE, Black | Spiderwebbing, crowsfeet, flaking & serious chipping all over hood. LOTS of swirls over the entire car body. The car has been hand waxed with premium wax once a month since it was bought in 1996. So the damage isn't due to neglect. The black is still black and very shiny. |
| Matt Hughes | 1996 Probe SE, Purple | Crows feet on roof and fading on the hood around the headlight. The paint also scratches and chips very easily, i feel like i have to treat it like an egg ready to break whenever i touch it. |
| Caleb Krizan | 1996 Probe SE, Red | Tons of Crows feet all over the hood and front bumper...Ford should really do something about this. |
| Craig Harris | 1996 Probe SE, Red | Started having problems with paint fading on front bumper and crows feet showing in 1998. Took to Adamson Ford in Birmingham Alabama, was instructed nothing could be done. Took to paint shop and was informed it would cost $1500 or more to repair, as car would have to be stripped to bare metal and repainted. Currently, crowfeet and mild flaking present on hatch, roof (This is the worse damage), hood, and rear fenders. |
