Ohh sorry, I think I misunderstood.
 
Initially I thought that the tail light is plastic made, so cannot rust. Also the registration plate module is plastic made. So I thought that the only metal made parts (so rust prone) are the rear door and the fender.
 
But actually I think you got some rust INSIDE the rear tail light. Probably those fancy mirrors inside the tail light can actually rust if water goes inside it (because your tail light was not sealed properly). Am I right ??
 
Thanks

Yes, correct, it's just the very, very far outside right perimiter of the right tail light. Much easier to see when it has been raining, but as the dealer said, "we'll see it, we have a car wash!"
