Rust on a 2005 and warranty ?

Hello, just picked up a 2005 and on the rear fender above the tires the paint is bubbling from some rust developing. The car has a 7 year 100K warranty on the sheetmetal. The car only has 50K on it. I was wondering if other people have had this issue and dealt with it through the dealership under warranty? I plan to take the car to the dealership and have it looked at but want to get some opinions here first from people that may have had this issue so I got some ammo in my back pocket.

On a side note, I went through this same problem with a GM vehicle and GM ended up doing 7 G's in body work to fix the truck. Hassle...but they did it.

Thanks for any info !
Matt
