Default 2017 focus rs poor paint

just noticed on my rear door seems like there poor paint from factory, not what you expect when buying 33k car!

already fixed roof lining that wasn't fitted correctly around sunroof, and carpet that wasn't fitted under seat mounting point.

not sure if ford will even entertain me now car is 14 months old

I would be going back with that paint fault and see what they say.

If not a bit of wet and dry paper will sort that.

if you bought it new then there not much they could argue about but I wouldn't expect to see paint runs even in a cheap back street bodge repair !
