npfd Posted September 5, 2011 Report Share Posted September 5, 2011 Hi there, We should be getting a 2007 grand prix, and i noticed that parts of the front control arm has surface rust. Is this normal? The car has been driven in Canadian winters. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
urbex Posted September 5, 2011 Report Share Posted September 5, 2011 Yeah that's normal. The a arms on my HHR have surface rust, and it's only seen 2 Michigan winters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
94 olds vert Posted September 5, 2011 Report Share Posted September 5, 2011 Sad to say it's normal. Family had an 09 Jetta and it was starting to rust in just 2 years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has a love affair with salt. He and Dalton McGuinty both sleep at night dreaming of ways to make your car rot faster so they can make more money from the auto manufacturers from kickbacks that the two gov's take in. :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But of course! That's why everyone from Ontario drives so damn slow here, they're secretly spreading salt from their cars as they drive along!!!!
