About a year after buying your 4Runner, you noticed bubbling on the hood and roof that looks like the clear coat is peeling or failing. You've taken good care of the vehicle—washing it regularly, keeping it garaged, and preventing debris from sitting on it—but the problem has gotten worse over the past year. The dealership noted your concern but didn't offer a warranty repair. The fix would likely involve removing and repainting the affected panels with new clear coat.
