The paint blisters did not show up for 6 years! I purchased the car last year and it had less than 1000 miles. It sat most of its life covered in the garage in Chicago. This past summer I drove the car a lot and appartently the summer sun (heating the paint) brought out the blisters! I hoped SPF would be surprised with the paint defect. They were not. The car is chronologically old, but like many SPFs was not outside and driven a lot. SPF did not volunteer to offer help. Just said the car's so old. The problem dosen't often happen, but is not unique to the older cars (or so I'm told). Normally it occurs on darker painted cars. My comments are based on conversations with SPF dealers in Ohio, Virginia and Louisiana.
