Is the rusting the result of the blown shock? How do you think the shock blew?

The rusting is on most of the rear suspension components and the exhaust, just looking around it seems to be on most metal surfaces that i looked at. I do not believe the blown shock has had any affect on accelerating rust. My car has 1044 miles, owned for about a month now, have hit no major pot holes and go over all speedbumps at a low speed. My car is absolutely stock. i was lifting my car to see how hard it was going to be to install a full exhaust sometime in the near future. I took some pictures of the strut but im not sure about the rust but can post them in a few days once i can lift it again

For some apparent reason. I have a set of shocks that have about 1000 miles for sale. If dealer doesn't want to fix the issue and blame wear and tear, I can supply parts for dirt cheap.
