It has taken me nearly 12 months to get this to happen through MMA warranty, but now it is done and looks like new again.
Interestingly, I got my local repairer, whom I trust, to quote on it. He quoted around $670 to fix and repaint. I submitted this quote to the dealer.
In the end I was told by MMA I had to use the dealer's smash repairer (who also have a good reputation) to fix the problem.
Ok, fair enough, I can deal with that.
When I picked up the car I asked the owner "How much are you going to bill the dealer", he replied "around $1500"
Not my problem......
Mine's in there today getting the 'recall' service, i showed them the rust around the tops of the door welds, and a spot on the roof, while showing them that noticed rust in the channel too
