2020 Rubicon - Paint Bubbling on Hood!

[JoeyJag]

Not sure if I'm the only one out there, but my Gladiator, which I pamper like a baby, has paint bubbling on the passenger side hood. I was shocked to see it today when I washed it. I have ~17K miles on it, just seeing if I am the only one out there with paint issues? Not sure the best approach, whether to pursure through the dealer or with Jeep / Fiat / Chrysler corporate. Appreciate the guidance!

I actually just noticed last week that I have almost an identical problem as you, also on a 2020 white Rubicon... Super frustrating!

Usually manufacturers applies a bead of sealant along the folded edge of the hood, but Jeep didn't. Water can gets in between the metal and corrode.

I had a paint issue at both of the hinges (2020 JT). Took it to the dealer. Under 3 years 30, 000 miles. Covered by warranty. Dropped it off, one week later got it back. The sub contractor for the dealer did a good job.
