You'd think you could get more then 4 years out of your cars paint job grrrr!! I'm thinking of taking this to the Hyundai Canada Inc. head office in markham..

My car had the same problem in 2002. The dealership repainted all my top surfaces for free and gave me a loaner until it was done. So check with the dealership and it shoud be under waranty like shark01 said.

ok well lets get sometihn right... the reason why the companys call it "clear coat" is becuase it is clear........ so i dont think that is what is peeling off.. but yes the paint very much will on anything plastic and not prep'd for painting... yes there is a warrnty for the paint up to 50k... soo chill... another thing is.. tell them to sand the hell out of it before they paint plastics...!!!!!!
