| Description of the problem | Door hinges are rusting from underneath the paint. "at the start of the 2007 model year, jeep started using aluminum hinges that carry a secret; a flaw in the way that the aluminum is anodized causes oxidation under the paint, even with the absence of air and water. What you essentially have is a vehicle with hinges that are subpar." http://www. Kentrolinc. Com/blog/post/2015/11/24/chemical-flaw-brings-out-the-worst-in-factory-hinges. Aspx |
