Rust

[Todd Soden]

My wife's echo is tarting to rust under her drivers door. seems to be only visable when viewing arund the drain holes. checked the drain holes, but they seem clear. Anyone else having any rust issues with their echos? Her car is a 2000 with about 95000KM on it.

She just had the floor boards replaced (tech service bulletin) and was given a lifetime warrently on them against rust. The only thing that we were not happy about was the fact that they didn not clean the interior very well after the job was complete! Rust debris EVERYWHERE!!!

The only rust I have on my 2001 is where some idiot nicked it in a parking lot (right by the rear light) -- but i'm getting that fixed. I also had to replace the floor boards, but the dealer cleaned it up nicely, so you can't even tell. How bad is the rust? May be you can just touch that up yourself, i'm doing my little rust spot this weekend

I have rust in the "L" of my two rear doors where rock chips have hit the body. The body protrudes beyond the doors, perfectly intercepting the rocks.

Two dealers will do NOTHING about this, though my dealer (where I bought the car) has repaired the rust and rehung the doors.

After giving up, I am restarting the work to get this fixed by Toyota as I (and the body shops) agree that the door must be hung incorrectly.

Anyone else have rust in the elbow of their rear door wells?
