My car was purchased and driven a few winters in Salt Lake City, Utah. I'm betting this is where the problem began.

Yeah, I know, blame it on the Mormons.... 
I'll have you know our roads are very smooth, and we use a brine solution not real salt unless it's super bad. This solution is applied before it snows and is very effective.
I'd say it's very rare for a car to get all salty and nasty. Maybe in Denver...
