Two problems related to paint have been reported for the 1996 Ford Mustang. The most recently reported issues are listed below.

1 Paint problem

Failure Date: 12/15/2005

The paint is peeling off of my car.

2 Paint problem

Failure Date: 03/21/2005

The paint has bubbled and now is chipping off the car. I noticed the bubbling some years ago when the bubbles turned to tiny rust spots. Just recently a large section of paint of the truck of the car chipped off. I talked to a few well known paint shops and they said that even in a car this old this should not be happening. They said that there was a problem with how the paint was applied in the factory. I also learned that many people with white Ford Mustangs have had the same problem.
