I've notice a defect in the paint on the hood of my black vert. The best way I can describe it is that it looks like they painted over an oil spot. This would probably be very difficult to see on a lighter color hood. I don't see it on my white coupe.
At first I noticed one very small spot that I felt I could live with instead of having the whole hood re-painted. But the other day I noticed another and now another and the original spot seems to be getting larger.
I can't get a very good in focused pic for you but I'll attach what I have... (I'll have to try to post pics later. Having trouble with the pc here at work)
Last Friday I took it to the local Ford dealership and showed it to the body shop manager. He agreed that it is under the clear coat and is coming from the hood surface upward. He stated that he has never seen this before. I asked him if they would warrantee it and he said yes but he wants to give it more time to see if it gets worse. I also asked him if we needed to document this and he said no that he would remember and stated how many of these do you think I see. lol
I can't find this defect anywhere else on the car and feel it may have something to do with the aluminum.
