how about some pictures of this rust . . . ?

I assume you park the vehicle outside?

How regularly have you washed and waxed it?

It would be nice to know who said the top coat was not done right. I don’t think it was a body shop because they would say clear coat. All you can do is contact a dealer and see what they have to say . If no help there then in your manual will be corporate contacts.
