Rust spots on trunk lid
 

I have two little spots on the back (vertical) surface of my trunk lid that appear to be bubbled rust. they have not broken through the paint yet. They are on the right side, diagonally about two inches from each other. They look like they might be spot welds on the inside of the trunk. :icon_no2:

I am wondering if anyone else has had this problem or has seen this before. I will try to get some pictures up tomorrow. The dealer will be looking at this!

^car debadged?

Nope, these are off to the side.

you know, the paint isnt the greatest on this car. the other week i found a few rust spots on my car.

1. where the water drains out of the door on to the door sill.
2. where the water pools inside the gas hatch

shame. new cars shouldnt rust so soon.

^i agree....trust me i lived in pa with the salt it just eats paint.....but it still must look good becuase someone the other day asked if that was an 09(GTO driver) and thought it was new

I have two rust spots. One is also at the bottom of the gas hatch and the other is on my trunk under the satellite radio antenna.

It looks like whoever installed the antenna used an adhesive, so the salty Florida air, combined with various soaps over the years and the Florida sun did some damage.

I'm wondering how to remove the antenna without making things worse. Any suggestions?

Rust around spoiler
 

I have some nasty rust around the left mount of my OEM spoiler (2004 GT) that finally broke through this past week. I'm having it repaired asap at a cost of around $500 CDN as it's the only rust on the entire vehicle and the body is otherwise spotless (plus I plan on keeping the car for a while). Oddly enough there's nary a mark anywhere around the right mount.

ya the door sill rust is a known issue i have a certain body shop who does my work and the guy owns about 4 rotarys including a rx8 and his door sills are rusting he tried going after mazda for it but he ended up doin it himself these guys did an evo that made it into a big car magazine, im sure if u search venturas auto body u guys can see their rotarys

i have rust in the trunk, i hope the 09 fixed everything, most cars rust anyways

Where abouts exactly in the trunk?, do you have water "pooling" where it is rusting?

Thanks
