I really doubt any name brand wax would cause your paint to flake. It should still be under warranty, so take it back to the dealer and have them look at it.

Not that I've ever heard of. Any wax on the market now should be clear coat safe. You need to take it to the dealer, you paint job is under warranty for 3/36k...

Dodge paint sucks. My 05 is just looking beat with the swirl marks and all that... Fortunately, a tree fell down in front of my house, just barely hitting my truck... gotta get the front bumper fascia repainted (the worst of it) but the whole truck is getting professionally buffed, polished and coated partially on the insurance company dime.
