Consumer Description

I WAS WASHING MY 2012 ACCENT IN MAY OF 2013 AND I NOTICED WHAT I THOUGHT TO BE DIRT ABOVE THE HATCHBACK WINDOW. UPON FURTHER INSPECTION I NOTICED THAT IT WAS A RUST SPOT COMING UP FROM UNDER THE PAINT AND CLEAR COAT. THERE WAS ONLY A SPOT ABOUT THE SIZE OF A NUMBER TWO PENCIL POINT. AS OF TODAY( 4-13-14) THERE ARE FIVE SPOTS OF RUST COMING UP ALL OF VARIOUS SIZE AND NOW I FOUND ONE ON MY DRIVER SIDE DOOR. HAS ANYONE ELSE REPORTED RUST COMING FROM UNDER THE PAINT ? WHICH TO ME MEANS THE RECYCLED METAL WHEN SMELTED DID NOT REMOVE THE RUST DURING THE PROCESS. *JS
