Mazda 2015 paint problems. Mazda users help

Are the new Mazda paint easily chip off? or is it just mine? Got a bnew CX5 2015 model and in just a month. I just found 3 paint chips that looks like caused by small rocks or rock chips from other vehicles. It's our 1st Mazda. We only bought it for looks. Didn't even read or watch reviews about it. I've been googling about the mazda paint chips problem and its not just me having a problem about it. But I don't really trust the net. Its better to hear other opinion about it here.

I had a 7yrs 2008 Honda crv before and never had any problems about paints chipping off from rock chips or road rash. Same with our 3yrs old Mitsubishi montero and 10 month old Isuzu MUX. Clear coat scatches are normal though but paint chips seems to bother me and only on our Mazda. Still no paint chips from our most daily driven MUX and Montero compared to our 1month old Mazda.

I would suggest to post some sample photos of your paint chipping off problem.

Sooner or later every car companies going to follow this paint regulation. Safer for the environment but more hassle to maintain.

My car is just 2 months old, every time I car washed my car I found a new paint chip. Just got 9 paint chips total and its not even on the front bumper or on the hood. Is it only the Mazda's thin water-based car paint or is it same with some other car brands? Coz my uncle's dark brown Honda city 2016 was bumped/rubbed twice already by a motorcycle. Didn't even chipped the paint, only deep scratches on the clear coat.
