It always blows my mind how these cars can look that good on the outside but be rotted out underneath. I do gotta admit for being a 2013 that rust build up is impressive and that's saying something coming from a Michigan mechanic
We have two 2016 Crossies and they have been GREAT cars.. but I'm dismayed to see that rust underneath. Living in Michigan we kind of expect some corrosion due to salt but wow.. that seems excessive . Anyone out there have rust mitigation ideas? I'm wondering if spraying rust converter would forstall the corrosion? Thoughts?

Wow! This thing has more rust than my 04 Impreza in Missouri! I didn’t realize you guy’s had so much snow and salt up there!
Lots
I gotta get a welder for things like this thanks for posting
They make a repair flange that is readily available that is for this problem. Available at any parts store
That larger piece up on the exhaust is the resonator. You can replace the exhaust back after the spring bolts.
Yes I did a little research on cost and mom said it will have to wait awhile. Thanks for watching
With thin rusty metal try to weld on your weld as you move along.
Thank you for advice. I am not a good welder. I took it in school when I was 16 in shop class. My eyes are not as good to see what I am doing anymore.

Not sure. Maybe fluid film. I sprayed the truck and it helped a little. It's a shame we pay this much for cars and they rot away quickly.
A quick fix but not so quick when it comes to getting to the point. Didn't bother watching it all. Don't need the life story bud.
Ok. Go watch other shorts.
yeah, well get stuffed cantheist
