Nissan Patrol 2015: Clear paint coat bubbling off?

The clear coat is bubbling off the roof on my 2015 Nissan Patrol. I went to my Nissan service centre, they checked it over and took it to a panel beater who reported that it was moisture under clear coat from when the robots painted it at the factory. The service manager said they would repair the clear coat on the roof and rang Nissan customer service to ask about warranty on the paint if I move interstate to live. He was told that Nissan would not give me any warranty on the paint and that I would have to come back to Victoria at my own expense to fix it if needed. I don’t understand why. What about the rest of the paint on the car?

Nissan is fixing the paint problem under the new car warranty, and the warranty will continue to apply to the car and the repaired paintwork until it expires, no matter where you live. I wouldn’t be too concerned about the paint on the rest of the car if it’s not currently showing similar signs of bubbling.
