Hi,

That doesn't sound good! But surely will be covered by warranty?

it wont be rust - it will be fallout. you need to wash and polish it

wud u want a 6 month old car resprayed? i wudnt not 4 the money u av spent on it....id insist on new replacement car & id recommend payin 4 the body check bout £10 on services 2 cover the warrenty

i had this when i bought my car it looked like rust, the bodyshop had it removed dont ask how. My big cousin is a valeter and the first thing he said was fallout.....

I had a diamond white XR2, really nice white, had it for 10 years. I don't know whether it is called "fallout" or not, but I can say if you looked closely every week you could see lots of tiny tiny rust specs, these just needed polishing off. White seems to do it. Maybe you car had simply been left in a compound in all weathers and the garage didn't bother to bufty it up properly for sale to you.

Painted metal, let alone vehicle paint will not rust under normal circumstances in that sort of period.
It might be useful to get some picture up so that we can see it.

Where exactly on the car is it - if it is "all over" as you say, this would include plastic parts such as the bumpers, obviously they will not rust(!).

hi everyone thanks for all your help you was right it is fallout fords are going to send me a quote lets hope its not to dear and im thinking of buying a cover for the car
once again thx

Get a clay bar kit from Halfords and DIY! All the car needs is a damned good polish. This link gives an excellent insight & explanation into fallout
