Personally, I would first give the builder an opportunity to fix the problem under your warranty. Take photos.
Many people want have their driveway painted. Having these rust stains could affect the ability to have this project done. Would a driveway painting company guarantee that the rust won't seep through the painted surface? I doubt it.
