It's a fairly common problem.

It's a common problem. Once it starts you have to strip it the rest of the way or get the whole thing repainted with clearcoat.
It's worst, we've found out, on cars that are exposed to a lot of freeze/thaw cycles. Garaged cars that are left in cold parking lots during the day, or cars that stay outside all the time in climates where the temp does a lot of freeze/thaw cycles.
