What does the damage type «Hail» mean

Hail damage is a common cosmetic issue for cars from the southern US states. It generally does not affect mechanical reliability, but leaves dozens of small dents across horizontal surfaces.

What may be damaged

hood, roof, trunk lid, upper portions of fenders
windshield (cracks)
paint and clear coat

What to keep in mind

loss of presentable appearance, difficult to resell without repair
corrosion risk where the clear coat has been breached

Our advice: Paintless Dent Repair (PDR) in Ukraine typically costs $400–$1,500. It is one of the most popular and cost-effective ways to restore a hail-damaged car.

A software problem may cause the transmission to inadvertently shift to Sport mode removing any transmission-related engine braking effect.
Remedy: GM will notify owners, and dealers will reprogram the transmission control module free of charge. The recall began on April 3, 2013. Cadillac owners may call 1-866-982-2339. Buick owners may call 1-866-694-6546.
NHTSA campaign: 13V097000
Electrical System
General Motors (GM) is recalling certain model year 2012 and 2013 Buick LaCrosse and Regal, and model year 2013 Chevrolet Malibu Eco vehicles equipped with eAssist. These vehicles may have a condition in which the Generator Control Module (GCM) may not function properly. This could cause a gradual loss of battery charge and the illumination of the malfunction indicator light.
Remedy: GM will notify owners and dealers will test the GCM and replace it, as necessary, free of charge. The recall began on June 11, 2013. Owners may contact GM at 1-800-521-7300. GM's recall campaign number is 13136.
NHTSA campaign: 13V173000
Suspension
General Motors, LLC (GM) is recalling certain 2012-2013 Buick Regal, 2013 Chevrolet Malibu, and 2010-2013 Buick Lacrosse vehicles sold or ever registered in Connecticut, Delaware, the District of Columbia, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, Virginia, West Virginia, or Wisconsin. These vehicles may have rear toe links that received excessive electrocoating (e-coat) corrosion protection, which could cause the e-coat to become brittle and break away when contacted by road debris. Over time, the e-coat may chip away, exposing the metal toe link and making it more susceptible to corrosion. Corrosion may eventually cause the toe link to thin and ultimately to fracture.
