My guess is that it's just from condensation, especially if it's just rust you get when you wipe it off, and it's not oily. If it's from condensation, then it's normal.

Also, your miles don't seem especially low for the length of time you've owned your CX-9, but if you are doing lots and lots of short trips, you might get more condensation and rust than someone driving a long commute at highway speeds most of the time.
 
Please let us know what the dealer says.

Steve, You are correct , if I am making lot of short trips, there will be more rust. But it is so unusual to have the rust in just 2 months of owning the vehicle.
 
Anyways I got my car back from the dealer. Though he didn't do any work on the rust, he sent the pictures to mazda and waiting for any response.
 
Anyone else having the same issue out there?

Hi, My CX9 is around 12 months now. I noticed rusting on the exhaust pipes recently, but it is in very bad condition. I never expected this, as my 4 year Maxima does not show any signs of rust on the pipes.I will bring it to the notice of the dealer and see what they respond. I am in NJ.
