Default Rust Under Paint 08 Ultra

My 08 Ultra is showing typical rust bubble under the paint where the rear fender tail light meets the fender. Like cars, do Harley motorcycles provide rust warranty beyond the standard 2 year warranty for mechanical issues? If not, what's the best repair method for this dime size bubble?

Could be just bad paint adhesion. Do you know for sure there's rush underneath the bubble?

In either case the tail light would most likely need to be removed.
