I've had no problems whatsoever having the local Ford dealer repaint my '98 E0 SVT under the standard 3yr/36K warranty.
I just got it back last week from having been repainted for the 5th or 6th time.
When I bought the car new with 17miles on the clock, the hood and trunk had minor white bubbling under the paint.
Then they messed up the whole car while applying the Teflon coating requiring a complete respray.
Then hood, roof and trunk started showing signs of fading after approx 1.5 years.
As of 1 month ago, hood and trunk lid started fading again. Went into the dealer, they repainted both pieces but botched the job, imperfections in the paint.
Then they repainted after stripping, and burned the clearcoat.
Finally, they call me and admitted their mistake and due to the many repaints the car needed a complete stripdown and repaint.
They paid for a loaner Focus in the interim BTW.
Just got the car back last Friday and it looks awesome.
BTW, it's a T-red SVT.
