Hi folks:
I live up north, and have an 09 CRV that is starting to rust at a weld in the tailgate. It is not visible from the outside. (Open tailgate, look up at the weld on the downward side of the door).
I tried to put in a warranty claim, but it was denied. (There was a separate program for the tailgate only, where they extending the rust protection for a period - but it did not apply to my case).
Anybody care to comment on my options to slow the process? I want to keep the vehicle for a few more years. I was thinking body shop - but don't want that bill....
