Small bubles appearing under 2005 Nissan Titan red paint. Local paint expert has measured mill thickness of paint over entire truck and he says it is original paint because if falls within factory mill and that cannot be duplicated anywhere other than a factory coating. Scratch reveals original base ecoat primer. When weather recently set recird cold tempreatures cloudly spots appeared on fenders and under back glass and a few other places on truck. Nissan dealer says truck has been repainted however original owner (I'm the second owner)says no way and this is verified by paint thickness and clear Carfax. Spoke with Nissan consumer complaint and they have denied claims. Some research has verified factory had paint shop issues and even got engineering students from Mississippi university help them with their problems. My opinion is water base ecoat had too much humidity and it is working its way from under paint.
The only fix for this problem is to strip the entire truck and apply a good primer and base color than a few coats of clear all done in a professional paint facility, i have heard so many paint issues on the titans the factory paint is no better than a few coats of shiny krylon its thin and when it chips rust apperars within a few days, look at a chevy truck built in the cold harsh city of detriot thats about 10 years old with paint chips, you wont notice any rust because we here in the usa use a thing called zinc coating before the body is even primered
Your correct, if you wait about a year you will notice rust in those spots
