Rust on doors

Just found out that Infiniti extended the rust warranty for the doors to 10 years unlimited k.

Getting two new doors, wax and polish for my 03. Doors were rusty for two years, wish i knew about this sooner.

Where was the rust at? Is it only on the doors or any part of the car. I have rust on my strut towers.

Just the doors, but I am unsure of exactly what part of the door.

do you have a site or TSB announced? dealership said last year that they wouldn't cover the rust on mine because there was "overspray" under the car.

I don't think that counts since it's considered damaged.

I have this same issue. They are bubbles at the bottom corner where the door closes and now the "bubble" chipped off exposing rust. I have a 04 sedan with 110,000. Please give me all information that you might have.

Any additional information would be great!! I have a spot on the bottom of my door, right above the trim (excuse the bad pic - from my phone). I talked to the dealer a few months ago and they said it wasn't covered.
