1 Paint problem

Failure Date: 02/22/2015

My 2000 Ford xl triton is great. It has 201,000 miles and runs like a new vehicle. My problem is that the paint has bubbbled and peeled back. It has left some light rust spots under the paint. I would like to have it fixed. After talking with other owners, they said the problem is the thickness of the painy.

2 Paint problem

Failure Date: 03/01/2008

Paint blistering off aluminum hood. Two spots where the hood meets the grill about the size of my xl fist and growing. Under the hood around the edges showing signs of blistering. Washing the hood (not power washing -- by hand) dislodged all the paint off in these areas and now is down to pitted aluminum.

3 Paint problem

Failure Date: 06/22/2007

My factory paint is bubbling up and peeling looks like it is rusting. The hood is all aluminum so it is oxidizing. And more and more paint is coming off.

4 Paint problem

Failure Date: 09/15/2005

The paint on the hood of the 2000 f150 truck started bubbling and the paint on the running boards started to flake away. In both areas the paint came off in spots in both areas. While driving I have seen this on numerous f150s, explorers and other Ford vehicles. I even noticed this on the passenger's door of a brand new show room Ford model.
