Replying to: hardyh (Nov 23, 2008 5:24 pm) 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. Replies to this message: tidester (Nov 23, 2008 8:59 pm) steve_ (Nov 23, 2008 9:05 pm) hardyh (Dec 10, 2008 2:56 pm) and 1 more...

Replying to: steve_ (Nov 23, 2008 9:05 pm) 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?   -Hardy Replies to this message: hssrao (Apr 20, 2009 10:54 am)

Replying to: hardyh (Dec 10, 2008 2:56 pm) 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.   -HSSR
