[QUOTE="NitroBerserker, post: 805167, member: 711"] Rusting Raptor Rocker Panels update. … 3 months later.. Well while cleaning my truck a couple days ago I found that the rust that was supposed to be repaired is coming back already, it’s only been 3 MONTHS…WTF ? I first noticed some rust stains and bubbles on the passenger side by the rear door and when wiping them the paint came right off. Then looking underneath I find the rust is coming back. I really hoped it was fixed good, but kind of expected it to last no more than 8 months since that is when my 5 years “no rust through warranty “ expires. And then they ( Ford ) would be done with me. But 3 Months?? You would think they could do a better job than that. We do have bad winters here, Pittsburgh, and they use a bit of salt, but we haven’t even had a snow yet and no salt on the roads. Very unusual for December in this area, so it can’t be blamed on the road salt. Guess I will be calling out to Crystal again. These battles with the dealer are usually frustrating, and I am not looking forward to it. Anyway here are a couple pictures to add to your horror, these are the after 3 month pictures. The first pictures are of the paint bubbles, It doesn't even look like they used primer on the metal before painting it. the next pictures are under the rockers and you can see the rust breaking through. Do yourself a favor and crawl under your truck. I am sure this is not an isolated case.. [/QUOTE]
