1 Paint problem

Failure Date: 10/05/2019

I have owned my car for only two months and the paint is already chipping. I have never owned a car where this happened after owning it for such a short time. I use this car for commuting to work on the highway.

2 Paint problem

Failure Date: 02/20/2019

Extreme paint chipping (down to the primer/metal) on the hood primarily. Color is soul red. The paint appears to be brittle and not properly bonded to the primer/metal. Chipping started occurring the first month after purchase and has continued to gain more chips. The car is driven mostly for city commuting. This car has the most fragile paint I have ever experienced. I have purchased a new Nissan, Honda and Subaru in the past and none have had this problem. I have seen many people complaining about this issue with Mazda online, it needs to be investigated for a possible class action law suit.
