PSA: I've seen three cars from the same local dealership this month with the same weird clear coat failure on the rear quarter panels.

Well that's a bad sign. Sounds like a batch job they messed up. My own car's clear coat is peeling too, but that's just age and my total neglect. Can't blame a dealer for my own lazy car washing habits, or complete lack of them. Probably saved five bucks on a cheaper sealant and now it's biting them.

Cheap sealant, meet expensive regret.

Read an article last year about a big recall for exactly this. A major brand had a bad batch of clear coat that failed way too early. They traced it back to a supplier changing one chemical to save money. Whole thing cost them millions in warranty work.
