2014 Superduty Platinum Rusting

I have taken my truck into my local dealership to have rust repaired. I have an F-250 6.7 4x4 Pearl White Superduty with 32,000 miles. I'm not happy with purchasing a $70,000.00 truck and it is rusting at pinch welds on all doors. The rust has started on the roof and inside the sunroof when it's open is visible. However it appears to be rusting from the inside out. This truck doesn't appear to have been prepped correcting from the factory painting procedure. Bare metal in between the pinch welds is where it's starts and veins out. Very noticeable if you clean the inside of doors where the outer door skin is bonded to the inner. My truck is also been garaged. It doesn't sit outside 24/7. I live in Florida.

Has anyone else noticed rusting on a 2 year old vehicle in these areas ?

If owned many Fords in the past and this is the first rust so quickly. I sold my 2001 F-250 7.3 that in its whole 13 years didn't rust like this.

My 2016 has no body rust and I live in the salt belt. Washing the under side and using fluid film does wonders.

Rust is still a problem and it is better to deal with it in the early stages. I generally saw a dude fight with rust on his bumper with Coca-Cola.

Two years ago I was in my local body shop picking up a vehicle and they have an F series in there that wasn't 12 months old with rust bubbling over the wheel arch. Truck looked otherwise brand new. Beyond unacceptable.

Ford. Where quality is job 1.
