It's workmanship, whoever did the paint job was rushing it therefore the coating starts cracking after one year.
It will be difficult for you to trace down which shop/dealer did the paint job thus difficult to file a warranty claim.
But you will have to get it fix aka repaint the whole hood otherwise the paint gonna crack through the clear coat and the aluminum hood gets corrosion/oxide then you'll be in big trouble.
honey~~~  all my good luck for you on this one...  |

more like bad paint prep, maybe? contamination in the primer or base paint?
