My tahoe is doing the same thing. This is not rust though. These parts are cheap plastic just like the dash boards are. The sun is deteriorating the paint and plastic. Just another wonderful problem with these trucks.

Same issue
I also have the same problem and I have seen it on other burbs too. But only on pewter colored cars. Took it to dealer and they said it wasn't covered. after calling Chevy customer service about 5 times they finally said that it was a defect in that color/molding for that year. However.....they still will not pay to fix... Anyone else having same issue?

Why
I have had my Tahoe since '08. My only complaint at this time is the spots on both sides of my car. I think that this is terrible. You make a car then use materials that don't last then you say there is nothing that can be done about it. My husband just bought a silverado last year. We love Chevy vehicles but I would have to agree that if you don't care enough to use good parts then I can no longer be loyal to Chevy any longer.

METAL RUSTS!!!!!
Where do you live? In the snow belt? That is to be expected.
I was doing body work on a 1987 car in 1992 to get rid of the rust while in the snow belt. Lots of salt used every winter.
