Hello All,
I recently bought my 2015 E220 Coupe W207 and have this strange issue with the top corners of the trunk/boot lid seal. Both corners are rusty under the rubber seal. Please see the photos attached. Anyone is having the same issue? What’s the reason and solution? Cheers.
I don't believe this is a commonly-reported problem. Perhaps the car was not garaged and leaves/debris were allowed to build up at the bottom of the rear windscreen and hold moisture there.

This looks like rust on the metal U-strip that is located inside the seal itself.
In such case I would not expect rust to be on the actual car bodywork (flange in the boot). Hopefully that seal can be exchanged by a fresh one?
