Why do they need to do anything? :shakes head:
The way the rust is sitting..it doesn't seem like a rock chip incident; maybe a paint deformity(?)

I'm pretty close to my Nissan guys..so I'm sure they'll help me out.

Do yall think this will be covered by Nissan?!! I'ma give them a call tomorrow, but DAYM..I'm PO'd! Shouldn't have rust on a car that's only 14 months old!:mad::mad:

14 months old?!! talking about my 3 days old. Pick her up on Sat., snow on Sunday, car got dirtied. Drove to work on Monday, got a car wash after work and realize i got a dent by the driver door toward the rear bender. paint got rip off roughly smaller than the size of a dime. Got so mad, i don't think it was the car wash causing it, I think someone is dent my door (d#$mm whoever!!), can't confirm it. I'm so pissed now:mad::mad::mad::mad:

P.S: i'm posting my pic tomorrow so you all can see...any suggestion how to cover that?

Thanks

haha..yall are too funny. I didnt take a picture...it probably wouldn't show much anyway. And yea.I was gonna paint the car white but I changed my mind. I have a few simple plans, nothing major since I'm now looking at buying a new house.

Sometimes crap on your car looks like rust, but infact, they're just... Crap on ur car...
I Noticed orange-ish red spots (super tiny, but definitely protruding outof the body) on my driverside AND passenger side door when I was washing my car and after a good scrubbing, polishing, wax, they went away. I thought they were rust in the begining too!

Dude. If you get a chip in the paint, you have to use touch-up paint before it rusts. If you don't, and it rusts...that's your fault. Why should the warranty cover it? Do you expect them to fix door dings, too?
