2 Paint problem

Failure Date: 04/01/2015

Paint began peeling sometime but not noticeably until a year ago. When serviced at a Honda dealer, they shrugged and said they didn't handle paint. The damage has increased greatly (see photos) and rust is beginning to be visible. The paint flakes off while I drive. I cannot sell the car in this shape. Honda's undercoat is blamed in research I have made. I have always trusted Honda, but am alarmed and unable to believe this is happening. Want to sell this car back to Honda for blue book price.

Two several sections of paint started peeling off without corrosion or scratch. Areas affected: hood, roof, near the back windows and sliding doors. The peeling are major on the roof. This seems a known issue with the dark blue Honda Odysseys. I took it to the dealer but said because it's 9 years old they weren't obligated to fix it.
