First I ever heard of this. I never experience this on any vehicle I have own, and I have never heard any owners say anything about that.
Chrysler uses the same steel and assembly technology as the rest of the other automakers they buy their robots and assembly machinery from the same companies that sell to the rest of the automakers. The rusting issue is long gone now because like other makers they are useing a special adhesive also in their assembly process.
Part of Chrysler's problem today involves their former small engine/platform partner Mitsubishi. In the 80s and early 90s Mitsubishi seemed to be a good brand. Ford partnered with Mazda and GM tried their luck with different Asian companies including Isuzu & Daewoo. Somewhere along the way Mitsubishi quality scandal hurt both Mitsubishi and Chrysler since their FWD products were so closely tied together. Ford was made better in the handling department thanks to their time with Mazda. Isuzu went back to commercial vehicles only and GM developed their own in house small FWD cars and engines through their subsidiaries in Germany and Korea. Seems any future FWD platform and four cylinder engine will be from FIAT.
Don't forget GM teaming up with Toyota for a wihle.

Toyota bought GM Fremont assembly plant and made the Toyota version of the chevy Nova, and they made the Pontiac Vibe also. It was a Tercel with GM badging.

Nova/Prizm was a COROLLA with GM badging. The Vibe was a Matrix

That Nova wasn't a bad car, it just had the wrong name. In no way did it even represent the idea of the purpose of the Nova. It's like that era's Pontiac Lemans. It wasn't a bad car for what it was, but it wasn't a Lemans.
