Dude, next month marks a whole year since I got my Model X! But seriously, not even a year in, and I'm seeing these annoying rust spots between the brake rotor and the rim on the front wheel. It's driving me nuts! I've babied this car, only clocked around 8k miles, and now this? Is this normal? Should I be worried about safety? Ugh, it's so frustrating!

Normal. All vehicles experience that. Not to offend you, but are you a first-time car owner?
It’s annoying to see rust spots on your Model X, especially after just a year. Unfortunately, it’s pretty common for Teslas due to poorly coated rotor housings, but it’s just a cosmetic issue, not a safety concern.Dude, next month marks a whole year since I got my Model X!
