Default 5th Gen Rust issues?

My sister has an 08 grand caravan. just noticed the other day that the bottom couple inches of the pass side sliding door it a nearly solid line of bubble rust...
is this gen as rust prone as some of the earlier models?

is this a particularly prone rust spot on these vans??

Have her check her corrosion warranty and if she is still within the time and miles, get to a dealer quick. My 2001 rusted in the hood and I was 2 months over on the warranty. Chrysler basically told me to stick it.
