I spent the better part of Monday waxing my wife's 2004 Accord and noticed
that just to the front of the side door panel trim the paint is starting to
peel. Is there anything can be done to prevent this from getting worse?
Thanks

Sounds like a poor-quality repaint to correct damage of some kind.
Refinishing is the only permanent option.

Did you buy it new? If car was never damaged in an accident, try bitching
politely to your dealer.

And of course, never looked back.

I still have my '92 Escort. On the sides of the roof, just above the
middle of each front door, there are ripples in the factory body filler
that make the car look as if it had been in a wreck and then badly
spliced back together. Every '91-'95 Escort is like this from the
factory. The dealer, Sanderson Ford of Glendale, AZ (near Phoenix,
avoid them), told me that it's not a defect because all Escorts had
this characteristic. They also had the attitude that you can't expect
good quality from a car unless you buy a big "furniture on wheels"
Crown Victoria or Lincoln, but the '91-'95 Escort was actually Ford's
most reliable vehicle. Honda and Toyota dealers have a completely
different attitude about quality
