Does anyone have rust forming under the screws around the windshield frame that stain the paint around them? If so, did the dealer resolve this issue for you, and what steps did they take?

 

pulled mine out along time ago (4years) and repainted them myself. I dont trust the dealership to fix complicated things much less simple things. They are gettting red again, they'll need to be redone again this spring.

 

Did you see any discoloration in the paint around the torx screws?

 

Surface only, it wiped off. Beginning to show back up now. The coating on those screws isnt great.

 

I should have been more specific, I'm talking about the actual paint of the vehicle around the torx screw. I'm beginning to see some discoloration that looks like its directly attributed to the slight corrosion.

 

Relevant threads from a quick search:

How many have rust showing?

Rust already!

 

I understood what you meant. My jeep is silver the discoloration showed up quickly, but i caught it before it caused permanent staining.

 

Oh man, I guess it's just another thing to deal with. Thanks for the threads above. I'll read through them closely.

 

I had the discoloration and rusting going on 1 month after I purchased it. I took it to the dealership and it was covered under warranty, which is 2 years on the paint. While your there, I would also take a good look at you door hinges and hood hinges also. I found some pitting on and around the screws on them ......
FYI if you do find and paint problems on the doors and you have taken the doors off at anytime, they won't cover it. Maybe forget to tell them you took the doors off, if they ask.......

 

I noticed this on a few at the dealership when I was looking. I'm glad I waited and ordered mine rather than get last years model. It looks as if they just didn't paint the metal very good around them. All the 2011's I have seen so far seem to have a bit more paint in there...it's the first thing I checked before I drove it off the lot haha.
