Automotive manufacturers have come a long way in developing rust prevention measures. The fact remains however, that road maintenance crews dump millions of tons of salt and corrosive de-icing agents on Canadian roads each year. Alberta is definitely no exception!
The most destructive automotive rust starts from the interior of body panels and eats its way through to the outside. The prospect of future costly corrosion damage remains high for your vehicle. Rust shortens the life of your vehicle and ruins its appearance, greatly reducing its resale value.
Manufacturer’s warranties cover rust due to defective metal and poor craftsmanship, but NOT as a result of road salt. Make sure you’re protected!
