Oh ya i found it on mine at 6000 miles dealership says as per Ford were suppose to be waxing these every 2-3 months i have never had this on any of my trucks Ford or Chevy, I noticrd mine around the tow hook cut outs first but also found it on the hooks and on the surface of the bumper itself,I can see a possible recall somewhere down the road cause this should not be happening. My co-worker has a 2010 dodge and he has had his replaced because of a similar problem i hope Ford takes a good look into this as well!!

Do a search and you'll find some others on here complaining of rusting bumpers and tow hooks.
