Its due to the seam sealant on some areas and thin paint on others and a common issue when you get flexible seam sealant with paint on it however fords are bad for it and a touch up is likely all they will do they rarely respray it you can try argue with them its poor i admit but ford get away with it you can ask for a test where they can tell you the thickness of the paint its supposed to be a certain thickness ford know the paint warranty is short so touch up cars when it runs out and tge rust appears theyll want to respray it at youre expense you can also call ford uk complaints they will then tell the dealer what to do
