My car is 5 years old & there's no problem with any other paint. Has anyone else got the problem and had it fixed by Toyota?

Very very common and not a big deal. The paint they used on it when it was painted offline (from the supplier) was obviously crap.It is a bolt on part and pretty cheap. Mine is almost 20% gone already. If early enough you can just take it off and paint it up with some black rust paint.
Toyota will not touch it as it is not structural nor a body panel.
