Rusty Brake Rotors

Is it just me of does anyone notice the Nissan brake rotors tend to show more signs of rust than any other vehicle I have owned?
The minute there is a rain shower or when I wash the car the brake rotors are covered with rust
Same issue on the wife's Pathfinder...

I don't know what other vehicles you have owned, so I am not in a position to answer your question. Sorry, I've not noticed.

It's just the fine coating on the surface of the rotor that "rusts"- as soon as you touch the brakes it's gone. Very typical with most disks.
