All cars that chip down to the metal will rust - natural oxidation process of metal + moisture/oxygen.Originally Posted by GLuXuRy
is there a lot of 07 sedans with this problem ?
Best way to combat it is to make sure you wax your car to avoid chips, and when you get a paint chip, try to get it fixed ASAP. You can wax over a chip potentially too to cover it and protect it from the elements.

As for having the rust, if you have chipped the paint somehow and it is down to the metal then you will get rust - regardless of the car and regardless of how old it is. That is just an unfortunate fact.
Exactly Cheryl! I have owned a lot of cars, and no matter what the badge, if you get a chip down to the metal, it's gonna get rust. Originally Posted by trey's wife

Oh, and I don't find the Infiniti paint to be poor quality at all!
