MB Rust Warranty very short

Is rust an issue with MB cars?

On the 208 CLK forum there is a thread re rust around the trunk door handle on a two year old CLK.

https://mbworld.org/forums/showthrea...2736#post52736

MB RUST warranty is LESS than luxury car competition:

MB has only a 4 year/50,000 miles RUST warranty.

Porsche: 10 years/unlimited miles.

Infinity: 7 years/unlimited miles.

Jaguar: 6 years/unlimited miles.

Lexus: 6 years/unlimited miles.

BMW: 6 years/unlimited miles.

Audi: 5 years/inlimited miles.

added via edit function:

VOLVO: 8 years/unlimited miles

Wow - 30 years in Sweden?

Volvo in the USA offers -

Rust: 8 yr. / Unlimited miles.

What is the Volvo rust warranty in Sweden?

Is there a MB site that shows the 30 years warranty, as I have done with the link to the Volvo warranty?
