That's another possibility I was considering. I'm just going to paint and seal it and see if it comes back.

BTW, is there a way to tell if a windshield is OEM?

Don't know if it's still required but older glass has to have a "bug" etched into it with manufacturer and other info. In bottom right corner, IIRC.

Edit: Checked my 2014 Challenger and it has a bug in the lower right corner. Door windows have the bug on bottom rear.

No worries, I thought it was just funny to point out.

Good reason though, as I've seen some seriously corroded undercarriages of Z's on this forum and they lived in Florida. I'm in a salt/snow belt state and even my dd's didn't look dat horrible underneath.

Op's car looks more like a factory defect on da pre-primer process

Looks to me like your rust is a little too deep to just paint over. I'd try some naval jelly (or similar) since space is restricted.
