Is this Rust? or rail dust?

[Jaysan]

Hey guys,

So after I washed the car today, I noticed this when I was drying the car -_-

I really don't think it is rail dust, but am hoping it is :(

Car is an 2008, so it's still under warranty.

2008 Yikes! Yeah, go get that fixed asap. That's awful but good luck!

I'm gonna see if I can get an appointment at QEW Mazda to have them inspect it and get approval.
I will need a rental though, so I hope they can get one for me.

Surprised this is happening so quickly to an '08, get it fixed asap!

Technically... you don’t need an appt...

Best would be to see the body shop as I need them to take pictures and send me the estimate for repair costs.

Let me know if you wanted to proceed this way.

Pm'ed!

Found 3 more areas of concern after cleaning my car again -_-

WTF is wrong with Mazda paint?
2 spots are cracked
another tiny spot of rust forming.

Rust forming right over the driver side taillight with hatch open.

This area is about 2 inches away I think from where the hatch is connected to the body (Drivers side)

UGHH
And I already went to the body shop to get an estimate. Guess I'll have to go again -_-

[Jaysan]

Are the above cracks stress cracks?
The drivers side cracks are already forming rust -_-
That was how I originally found the cracks. I saw the rust orange colour :(
