Paint Flaking away leaving small pits: BMW X3 2013

I seem to be having the same problem: I got an Alpine White 2013 X3 on lease on December 14 2012. Within a week I noticed 1 small "pit" on the rear left door where the undercoating and metal was seen- I initially dismissed it thinking it was from parking in a public garage. 2 days later I noticed another small powdery flake and when i touched it it just peeled away. I took the car to the dealer and they washed it down and then said it could be small rock/ pebble hits. I brought the car back and its been in the garage since then and now I find 2 more spots now on the driver door too. I called the dealer and the BMW USA- this is my first BMW and the X3 drives great but this paint problem is very disappointing and I am also concerned about what will happen at the end of the lease??
