The paint is bubbling up all along the lower edge of the hoodline. There are no chips. Dealership looked at the hood and explained that the hood is made from aluminum and can corrode. The dealership then pointed out several other areas of corrosion under the hood that are not visible from the hood top. Dealership says this is not covered after the 3yr/36,000 mile warranty or the 5yr/unlimited rust. To fix the one spot was quoted over $100.
The front lip of the hood has paint peeling off.

The paint is bubbling up all along the lower edge of the hoodline. There are no chips visible, if you touch the bubble , the paint flakes off & exposes the rust underneath the paint. Dealership says this is not covered after the 3yr/36,000 mile warranty or the 5yr/ unlimited rust through warranty. Waiting to get quote to re-paint the hood.
Paint chips due to what I feel is a body flaw. The tires flip small gravel against the flare directly behind the rear car doors. This caused chips in the paint.
