Angry Does this fall under the body warranty

I have noticed this the pass year has not gotten worse but is obvious. Do you think it will or could be covered under the anti rust warranty?? This is right on thr bottom of the glass trim on the passenger door side of my 2006 cayenne turbo s

Can you put a circle around it or an arrow? I'm having trouble seeing what you are talking about.

Since it does not appear to be damagedor compromised externally, thus leading to the issue from the ouside/in, I would say, yes.

I have seen one car from Canada with that same issue. I would say yes too.

Dennis it's where the black trim piece that runs vertical down the glass meets the door panel trim sorry I didn't circle it.

I see it now. I was looking on the painted surface of the door. I hope it is warranty covered.

The corrosion warranty covers perforation, where corrosion caused by a defect in workmanship results in a body panel being penetrated by rust. I'm not sure if that molding has a metal component within, but rubber can certainly bubble up from application of heat or chemicals.

If the dealer determines it's not due to damage caused by you, I don't see why they wouldn't cover this. It won't be covered under the corrosion warranty though.

Well thanks for your input I will see what happens when I get around to taken it up to the dealer next month.I am thinking it's some kinda build flaw that rusted on mine never seen on another one. Porsche 52 was the other one you saw cover under warranty and I am just banking on the corrosion part of the warranty the other part of it has long been driven out of
