• Salt used for road de-icing will coat the bottom of the car and
hasten rusting.
• Localities with high humidity have greater potential for rust
problems, especially where salt is also present on the road or in
moist sea air.
• Industrial pollution will accelerate the deterioration of paint
finishes and promote rusting.
Preventive service
Check all drain holes in doors and body panels for clogging and
clear if necessary. When washing your car, also clean the underside
of the car by using high pressure water; (1) above subframe, (2)
inside front fender, (3) rear suspension, (4) inside rear wheel hous­
ing, and (5) under rear bumper.
After washing your car or after heavy rain, check for leaks. Dry
any wet areas of your car's interior. Have leaks repaired as soon as
possible.
