paint issue/question

I'm not sure if curling is a tech term I don't understand. In person it looks like battery acid must have been dripped on it. The car is never really out of my sight. I don't leave it at the mall or anywhere else. I just drive it to the wash, putt around a bit and put it back in the garage. No time and too many motorcycles so it doesn't get used much. If this came out of a bird, that birds DEAD. Couldn't have survived passing this. I can really only imagine the aluminum is corroding for some reason.

Well.. long long story short. I owned a 2006 mustang that the hood began corroding under the front lip. After much investigating, the corrosion started at the factory by metal fragments on the aluminum hood before the car was painted. Properly called oxidation, that Ford refused to acknowledge or fix. Even though there was a TSB stating the facts.. No more Ford for me. Got rid of it and never looked back. Good luck with Nissan!
