I called Ford Canada and they told me that it was usual wear and tear. If it was due to usual wear and tear then why in the world is the paint coming off before the tires and not after them? The car is not even two years old and the paint is coming off. It does not fall under warranty but as it works it way down to the metal it will rust which is covered. So I now get to wait two more years until it rusts before they fill fix it. Ford just lost a customer with at least 30 more years of car service and buying. I was happy, now I'm done.
Update from Jun 17, 2009: Finally after much complaining and hasseling it is under warranty. They have fixed the problem and suggested I install mudguards to stop the problem from occurring again. Its good to see that Ford does listen to its customers.
