Hello everyone,

I recently noticed rust on the door frame, specifically the window frame of my Passat, which is coming from inside through the paint. The rust is almost always near a seal. Has anyone else experienced something similar? What are the chances of a warranty claim? While I have a 10-year (or was it 12?) warranty against corrosion, it hasn't actually rusted through.

would appreciate any tips.
Greetings,
Stefan

Hi,

klingt ja übel ! Sicher daß es keine Schweißpunkte o.ä. sind ? Lack schon weggekratzt und ist wirklich Rost drunter ?
Wäre nett wenn ihr mir mal eure Fahrgestellnummer nennen könntet(wegen Produktionsort, Fgstnr. steht z.B. vorne im Serviceheft).

Grüße, Rainer
