I’m not sure but hopefully, the corrosion warranty says otherwise. Lots of Expys with bubbling paint in first years of ownership have been told no repair if not perforation or holes. I’d try to get it covered under warranty first too, but doubtful. OP can make his own hole if they deny coverage.
I was one of several lwhose Ford dealership said the corrosion under the paint on the rear tailgate was not covered under the corrosion warranty (while within the 36 month - 36,000 mile period, and purchased new).
For 2016 and later models, Ford changed and improved the corrosion warranty - which does not require a hole to perforate.
Looking back, I should have insisted the base warranty cover the corrosion (under the paint - the top paint on the vehicle was done very well).
Aluminum panel paint corrosion - one of several reasons I’ll never buy another new Ford.
