paint problems on 96

I have champaign colored exterior paint. Excellent condition. However, I noticed on the front bumper littl ebubbles have formed and on one side the bubbles have turned into a one inch strip of peeling paint that reveals a black bumper. Looks awful! Has anyone else had or have this problem? Was there a recall I'm not aware of? How can I stop this from happening before I have to get the whole front bumper re-painted?

Nissan paint just sucks. The paint is really soft. My hood has taken a beating to chips.

That is common on most non black 95-96 Maximas. I can always spot the bumper being a different shade.. damn Nissan.
