I can't say that I've ever seen a door strike rust on any of my cars, and I've owned a lot of GM cars. But, right there in the pic, there's rust forming on the edge of the strike where it meets the body. So long as it's not eating through paint or doesn't get much larger, I wouldn't worry.
You could take them off and have them powdercoated. Of course, the powdercoat would wear off where the door actually strikes, but that's expected. Or, you can try new strikes at apparently $15/each. I would think those would be electroplated or galvanized or whatever...maybe a bad batch?
Also,have you taken it in to show it to a dealer? I wouldn't think rust on the actual wear part of the latch would be covered, but the piece that abuts the body...I'd get a 2nd opinion.
