Hi All,
Having been a member of this site for more than 6 months, and a lurker for a little longer than that, it is sad that my first post is going to be a rant.
I bought my truck (Pentastar Bighorn) in August of 2021 brand new off the lot. It now has ~12,000km on it and I love the machine! However, today we are having a beautiful sunny day and I decided to go out and give it a nice spring-cleaning, only to discover numerous areas of what appears to be rust spots ALL AROUND THE TRUCK!!! The worst spots are in the wheel wells, but there are spots on the door sill, the gas tank cover, the tail gate, everywhere!
This is particularly irksome to me because I sold my beloved 2010 F150 and bought this truck because of rust issues. My intent is to visit the dealership this week to have them look at it, though I am unsure what to expect. This is my first new vehicle and don't have much experience as to what is covered under warranty and what isn't.
I am attaching some pics here of the worst areas. Has this happened to anyone else?.....or am I just that unlucky?
