    Not sure what the cause of the brown spots is, but it doesn't look very serious.

    BTW, that's a Sugar Maple you have there, not a 'Red Sunset' (a cultivar of Red Maple).

    the garden centre said it a red sunset maple, and the sun has got to it even more now as the leafs have turned completely brown
