1 Paint problem

The paint is peeling off of my truck. Their is no visible rust behind it just gray primer. I have viewed several complaints on-line about Ford vehicles and paint issues. This was purchased and a certified pre-owned vehicle.

2 Paint problem

Failure Date: 03/10/2008

I own a 2008 Ford f150 with 12,000 miles. Bought the truck brand new in Feb 08. With only 453 miles on the truck I noticed many paint defects : the paint under the hood was blistering off, the paint on the pillar behind the drivers side rear door was messed up, Ford fixed these issues then shortly after that I had more blistering paint under the hood and a haze on the drivers side front fender. Then one day as I am washing the truck I notice the paint is bubbling on the passenger side doors.
