Hello fellow Subaru drivers,
My '99 Forester has recently developed some pinpoint rust spots on the rear
hatch door. Very tiny, about the size of the period at the end of this
sentence. They're not in a pattern, just 10-12 random dots. I live in the
mid-atlantic region so there's not a great deal of snow, and according to
Carfax the car was originally leased in Florida (I'm the second owner), so
I'm surprised to see this so soon.
The rest of the car is in terrific shape, so I'll most likely have the hatch
painted before it gets any worse.
It's just weird though. I could understand it if it were on the front of
the car, where rocks might fly up, or on the hood where hail might have
struck, but these are all on the vertical surface of the BACK of the car.
Does anyone have any thoughts on what could have caused this?
