Murphy's Law Hits Rust Warranty
 
So LOL - My 5 year 100,000 km warranty is now gone - Last month actually - Go Figure today as I was washing my car, the lower portion of the front fender attached to the
lovely plastic rocker panel skirts is missing paint along all the edges and rusting up.. Bugger! This is what happens when I can only wash the car once or twice a month cause it keeps raining in Ottawa!

So solution - Paint the whole car next year and get them to pull off the fenders and do rust repair - or just keep pouring Krown's T-40 on it until I can buy a anti-rust module to possibly halt any further corrosion from occuring - and save up for a more expensive better paint job.. LOL.

I swear the 03's had the crappiest Paint jobs in the first place.

Dont be a sucker for the electronic rust proofing. They dont work. I see them everyday at work.

I wasn't planning on not shooting the Krown - Just supplimenting it with the Anti-Rust Module.

I've seen them work on my cousin's own rust prone Grand Prix GTP. Heh - and his Girlfriend's Alero. The spots that were rusty haven't gotten that much worst in the 3 years since they both had them installed. And they hate any oiling - and I swear by it except that I have rust even on my frame now LOL.

Fords will rust weather they are a Mustang or an Escort.
