Hi,
I'm currently in the market for a slightly used Expe ('05 or '06). I looked at a couple of '05s yesterday and noticed what looked like bubble rust on the rear hatch/tailgate. I have been told it's made out of fibreglass so it would obviously not be rust. But on both vehicles, they had the defect. In one case, it was in the lip near the window latch and in several places around the inset panel that has the liftgate handle. On the other it was in one corner of the inset panel.
Any ideas? Since I've seen the defect on 2 for 2, I'm guessing there's plenty others out there that have it. In both cases, the dealers said it is a defect and therefore covered under the bumper-2-bumper warranty.
