"Rust?" on trunk deck.

Saw these spots last week while cleaning my car. Anyone else have them?

Yeah, that should be covered by warranty. Definitely get it in to your dealer ASAP. That shouldn't happen to a new car.

I know this is probably not related, but gotta ask - any chances of ocean salt water getting on your car a alot? Surfing gear, driving on beach, etc? Even with that you would still need a weakness for it to take advantage of.

I remember back in the '70's, Fiat had some new cars that got surface rust by the time they were unloaded off he boat in the US.

The only thing I have put in my trunk is groceries, and I've only had it since march.

I have already had problems with the paint on this car. It had "rail dust" when I bought it, but I did catch it until after I got home. I told the dealer about it and he told me to bring it in so they could clay and wax it. It seems to be gone now, but it sill worries me. And now this.

Yup. Knew that just wanted to get another view.

Not a fan of high wingers but this one is pretty well done.

In the pictures there appears to be a big blob of paint or weld on the corners.

I'll have to check mine out.

The one on the right looks horrible. Let us know what the dealer says. I went out to the garage and looked at mine just to compare and both corners look perfect compared to that.
