Body rust yes. Bolts/nuts, non structural sections, exhaust, suspensions, etc. do not require panic. Touch up if it bothers you but the damned car is not going to fall apart. I have lived my whole life in the rust belt of Canada and have watched the cars get better and better at dealing with rust over 40 years. The days of rotted out, 3 year old cars, ended about 25 years ago (other than Mazda that is. they continue the legacy).
