Corrosions in Engine Bay

[mudi269]

Hi

I bought a brand new Yaris, YRS about 2 months back. I didn't check everything when i bought it. But after two months i found some corrosions in my engine bay. When i took it to the dealer, he said it is very common in Yaris and he applied a protective coating and spray painted the corroded area.

1. Is it a common failure in Yaris ?

2. What can i ask dealer to do for giving me a brand new car with corrosions ?

3. Is ther any future effects due to those corrosions ?

My wife has a YRX sedan and it has the same rust on the engine mounts. It will never get any worse than what it is now. Nothing to worry about.

It is absolutely nothing to worry about man. It is just a tiny bit of surface rust, it will not get any worse and nor will it have any negative effects on the car.

If you are really concerned you could clean the rust off with a wire brush and re-spray the mount with zinc it or similar.

I would think it is common problem in Yaris. At least I see two yaris has rust on the same area and including you thats three.

I went to the dealer they said it's OK to leave like this.
