Rusted power running board

Hi all,

I was cleaning my 06 Gator the other day and I like to wash up under the power running boards so they stay nice and quiet. I finished washing the drivers side and went over to the passenger side and noticed the water coming off was dark brown - almost black and lots of material was washing away. Afterwards I had a look underneath and saw that the running board was severely corroded and that metal was actually coming off of it! I'm going to be taking it in to the dealership as it is still under warranty, but I'm curious if anybody else has seen this or had a problem with corrosion like this. Vehicle has 78K kms on it and is in otherwise excellent shape.
