Guys..

By the way this is the 2nd time it happened in the same place.

Before they maintained the 4 doors and now when they made the report they informed me that agine the 4 doors has rust from inside and under the trunk and rear left , this part required maintenance...

I really feel disappointed... MB getting rust this early..... Bad point..

ouch, sorry man.

But from this pic:



it looks as if someone it that part, along with those two white marks on the bumper and caused the opening in the paint leading to the bubbling?

Anyhow, what is MB saying about the rust? Did they just sand and paint again last time or they replaced the entire panel?
