Default powdercoat issues

I washed my rocker the other day and noticed the powdercoat on my lowers is bubbling and flaking off. Anybody else have issues with it? 08

My bike has gloss black lowers and they started to bubble up on one side with only 2xxx miles on the bike, I always keep the bike clean too. The dealer looked at it and replaced both side lowers no charge.
