Paint is bubbling on my 2006 Ford Mustang GT on the hood. This appears to be the same problem others have with the paint issue.

corrosion on the lip of the hood outer and under

Approximately 6 months ago I noticed paint chipped on the tip of the hood of my car in a few places. As I looked closer it looked like someone poured acid due to the bubbling effect. I thought it was odd. I ignored it for a few months and finally looked on Google for similar issues with Ford Mustangs and saw many other complaints of this bubbling paint/corrosion. First I went to a body shop. They said it was galvanic corrosion having to do with metal against aluminum. They gave me a quote of 600 dollars to fix but could not guarantee it would not come back. They said I should go to the dealership since they might fix it for free since it was an issue with Ford. Then I went to the Ford dealership. The manager of the body shop department said there have been lots of complaints but Ford was only going to honor those within a 3 year or 36,000 mile warranty. I asked him what was the cause. He said it is just rust. I was very disappointed with all the complaints from customers. I only have 63K miles on my car now. Seems like Ford should be taking better care of their customers and issue a recall.
