Rust bubbles around windshield?
I've been looking at used 2016-2017 G550s the past few months and every single one of them has had rust bubbles near the weatherstripping on the windshield. Am I just unlucky or are they pretty much all like that? Is that something that should be a concern? Has anyone tried fixing and repainting the rusted areas?

Known and common issue. Surprised it is an issue on many later W463 models though.

The fix is exactly what you would expect. Remove the windshield, grind down the rust areas, hope it's not too bad, replace any spots that rust through. repaint, reinstall windshield. Wait for x number of years when it starts rusting again.
