Take it to the dealer if you still have the factory warranty. I’ve heard some people have gotten them replaced for free but FCA can be difficult. Only other option would be to replace them and pay out of your own pocket

A cheaper solution is to paint them, but I recommend using rust converter/dissolver.

Some answers on this thread will be confused with the aluminum under paint corrosion issue. Your problem is not that (lucky you). You have an iron bolt rust problem with a simple solution. Try this: Apply lemon juice to the hinge bolt area and before it dries, use water to rinse the rust away.
