Certain components of the vehicle may also have their own corrosion warranty or may exclude corrosion damage completely. The corrosion warranty usually applies to the original owner only, the manufacturer will either replace or repair the outer sheet metal panels you install or have installed if the panels develop inside out rust-through corrosion perforation. The corrosion warranty also may cover the refinishing to include the parts, labor, paint, supplies and the repair of the corroded panels. What is typically not covered under a corrosion warranty?
