Exclamation 2007: Front quarter body panel is Rusting already

Not to happy when I noticed this.... An area about the size of a quarter, near my front driver turn signal is already rusting from inside.

I can't see what caused this: there is no pit that I can see, and from underneath, the area's protected from stones by the plastic wheel well.

Paint's clearly looking bubbly. Not impressed. This vehicle is only 4 years old!

Interesting...

I've got an 08 here in Atlanta and I noticed some bubbling underneath the paint on my front right quarter panel...I grew up in the NE so I know that early sign...But so strange here in ATL...There's also some rust in the door jams...
