I have always had my car washed and rust proofed during the winter ever 2 weeks. Last December the paint under the bottom of both the drivers and passenger doors started having the paint bubble up on both rocker panels. It started bubbling up then curling and the pain started coming off. Ive seen many other Cougar with this same problem and feel it is due to a defect in the paint that was used or something missing from the paint job that was done

When making a right hand turn, the contents my cup in the cup holder (usually hot tea) spills into my driver's seat when making a right hand turn. 30-35 mi P/hr is the minimum speed that I've noticed. This distraction causes me to take my eyes off the road to straighten the cup to stop the spillage. At times I've found myself swerving a bit in the turn because of the "initial shock" of feeling my hot beverage on my thigh.
