Any chance there is a recall on factory paint jobs on '96's?

There is a spot where the paint has been peeling on inside of drivers door jamb, another one on inside lip on top part of passengers front fender near the windshield and when i washed/waxed it yesterday, I saw another spot about the size of a nickel near an aftermarket snake emblem under the blue oval on rear decklid. The first two weren't real noticable cause they were kind of on the inside (but you could still see them w/out opening the door or anything) but this last one is real noticeable.

It's obvious the primer just didn't stick.

Check out www.alldata.com & search for recall info....

Is this the original paint (did you purchase the car new or used)??

Thanks, i'll check out that sight. Seems to be nothing there but service bulletins for rough texture and paint matching and mystic paint.

I bought it used but the guy lives in the same small town as me so i was familiar with the car before i bought it and know that the passengers side q-panel was re-painted due to a rubber mark from a tire falling off the back of a truck. But, besides that and the racing stripes, it's original. I know a guy who had the exact same spot on the door jamb peel on him too, and another guy w/ a 97 cobra who had to get his whole rear deck re-painted because of the same problem.
