Anti-corrosion Warranty (Perforation Warranty)
An anti-corrosion warranty covers rust that eats through the body panels from the inside out for a set number of years.
What is Anti-corrosion Warranty (Perforation Warranty)?
Coverage periods are often much longer than the general new car warranty. It usually covers perforation, not surface rust or stone chip rust. Regular body inspections may be required to keep it valid.
How it works
The manufacturer repairs panels that rust through due to production or material faults.
Why it matters for your car
Damage from accidents or poor repairs is excluded. Keep inspection records stamped in the service book.
