I have the same problem on the passenger's side wing and i had already the drivers wing replaced with a new one at an independant bodyshop. On inspection of the old wing i saw that there is a bracket braised on the wing and it is then e-coated on top. The rust starts at the braising and therefore it is a manufacturers issue. The first one i paid 600pounds to have it replaced, but i'm not going to pay again for the other wing. So i might pursue the warranty route. It is indeed very dissapointing to have these problems.
