Rust on a 2011????
 

Anyone else having this issue? I have rust starting on the front lip of the hood of my car. I plan to take it to the dealer to see about getting it fixed under warranty, but was curious if this was common.

WOW....Damn, never seen that yet. Hope thats not a common problem just waiting to show its ugly head. Hope they do something quick about that.

I think they will take care of it for me without much, if any, issues. It was suprising to me when I found it waxing my car this morning. Its not a spot where water sits or anything like that. It will be interesting to see what they say. I will keep everyone posted. The problem will be me getting it to the dealer soon. My work schedule is not exactly errand friendly.

i hope you get fixed

I looked at an '11 at Carmax and it had rust bubbling up under the paint on the front lip of the hood - I thought that meant it had been in an accident and not fixed right

I thought the hoods were aluminium?

technically oxidizing, not rusting

take a look at this thread

The 4.6L's had a hood/paint issue. I believe there was a TSB on it. Leave it to Ford to keep making the same mistake 7 years later. Our Stangs aren't built to very high standards, period.

i've also got bubbling paint on the front lip of my hood, this has to be covered under warranty, still under bumper-bumper
