i bought my 04 about 3 months ago. when i was doing my headlight mod ive noticed i had a lil bit of rust forming under the grill. didnt think much of it. than some guy rear ended me and i hit the person in front of me now my front bumper is messed up. do you think they'll replace my bumper under warrenty for the rust? or being in that accident might have then void it.

 

Call up Santa Cruz Subaru. ;D

Warranty covers faulty parts, like the crappy windshield wiper blades, your bumper didn't fall of, you rear ended someone(or the car behind you made you do it). I highly doiubt warranty will cover that.

On top of that, the body soaked with some anti rust formula stuff, its a selling point for people that live in the snow. unless you drive in salt water, the ony rust you might see is from nuts, bolts and screws.

 

this rust is like on the paint. worth a try
