It's because of the butter that Nissan uses in their paint.
There are at least 2 big threads and several smaller ones on this subject on this board each with several hundred messages dating back more than a year. This is old news and unfortunately is a fact of ownership for the 5th generation Max (and we hear a few Sentras as well).
Good luck, maybe you will have better results with your dealer than most of us have had with ours. In the meantime, just drive between every bit of sand and road pebbles that you see.

Holy ****....I thought I had problems. That has got to be the worst I've seen. Are you sure you car hadn't been towed behind an 18 wheeler ?.... on gravel roads? .......upside down?

I think I have some garden tools that, um, don't hang very securely on my garage wall. I really don't want them to fall, but, ahh, when I'm I going to find the time to move them?
