It is definitely normal.... you can put a bit of grease on the rust to control it a bit.

I won't add any more pictures, (yes I have worse), as we'd escalate the problem... we'd not want to do that or we won't sleep. Wheels falling off, seats collapsing and the dash in our laps, all due to the tin worm, will be too much to bear.
