only one good way to fix it, cut out the effected area and replace it.

X2. You will have to remove the carpet and inspect the floor around the area of the damage. The rust might not be that bad, and might only be in the area where they welded on the hanger. The only way to repair is to make a new piece and weld it in where the damage is. I would make at least a 6" by 6" piece.
