I don't like being talked down to because I find bubbling paint to be a concern on a 3-year old car. Structural or not. I find the answer of "just deal with it" to be pretty shitty.

@Ultramaroon you're one of the only people that actually offered a real solution. Thank you for that.

I just have no patience on this forum anymore for 86 white knights that take every problem with the car and say "don't worry about it". My hope in the original post was that other people had this problem and someone could give some advice on fixing it, like sanding and repainting. Several people did. Those people make this community better. "Cars rust, deal with it homie." Is not constructive.
I responded what appeared to be a slur to those that contributed earlier and the fact you repeated it confirms my suspicion that it was.


The response to many of those little problems is indeed "don't worry about it". Many a person has had their mind set to ease about something by the responses here.


Your original post did not ask what you could do and your last one just complains that it is unacceptable with the indication you feel time will tell how bad the whole car will rust.


My statement did not say "deal with it" anyplace. Cars do rust. Always have. Always will. You still seem to maintain that the rust on a little strip is indicative that the whole car is doomed. I simply stated that is not true.


Did you really need to have somebody tell you to sand and repaint it?


You come on like a freight train at a simple "totaled" joke and then cry foul when you get responses to your sarcasm?
