Yea Celicaboy is right. You need to sand the paint down to bare metal, I would also treat the metal with a product called OSFO or any rust eating chemical. Then prime it with a 2 part primer, spray a sealer, and repaint the door.

Chances are the rust was caused by a factory mistake in the paint job, or the door has had bodywork done in that area before and someone skipped a step. Hope it works out for ya.
