Default 2006 Paint issue?

On the nose of my 600 mile 2006 LeMans Blue I have about 10 small bubbles in the paint. They are above the surface & cannot be waxed off. I have an appt Wed @ Dealer for a OnStar issue so I can address it then but was looking to see if anyone else has seen this?

I think in your owners manual it tells you GM will repaint your car FREE first 12000 miles or 12 months. Might want to check that out.

Thanks! Anyone else out there experience this bubbling? Very tiny, about size of unsharpened pencil head.

I wonder how many of these problems, including orange peel are the fault of enironmental concerns because of what chemicals can and cant be used to paint a car?
