[Intercooled]

The bottom of my 06H2 tire rack is rusted and peeling as well. I went to the dealership with my 05H2 witch had some rust bubbles on the bumper around the where the tire rack mounts. They told me rust and paint are tough to put into warrenty. Because they were just bubbles they said it was a factory defect, and fixed it. If rust is showing through they told me most often it could be from a scratch, small ding or chip. Not a factory defect. I'm going to ask about my tire rack when I go into the dealership this friday. They could say that I rubbed across something when i swung it open and now its peeled and rusting. Well see how it goes. Give it a try, if its the welds, I would say its a factory problem and not neglect or usuall wear.
