Default Paint Bubble and Flaking!

Thank God my truck is still under warranty. But it has me concerned what will keep it from happening again when its not. However I was cleaning my truck and when i opened up the passenger quad cab door. On the bottom of the acual truck not door, under the door sill. I have a paint bubble. Oh crap i think. I need to get it in before it pops and flaks off the pain off my truck. So a day or two later i look at it again. (i work full time so im waiting untill the weekend to get her down to the stealorship.) And one poped and already started flaking! Thats totally not cool guys. Has any one else had this problem? Does anyone know how there going to go about fixing it? Can they do it there or will they have to send it off? If so how long would it take? I love my truck 04 QC Hemi just 20k miles. I hope this can get resloved.

They should be able to fix it there, I doubt they will go for it put I would push to have as much of it repainted as possible, if not the whole truck. If they fix it right they will remove all the flaking paint from the area because if they don't it will happen again. I have no idea how long it will take, in a perfect world a day or so but who knows how fast they move or how busy they are.

I would hope it's only a localized spot, and the repair area is as small as possible. Re-paint jobs are never as good as factory unless you spend big $.

How much should a person pay for a really good paint job? And who gives the best paint jobs? What about Maaco?
