Am I being paranoid? How much rust is too much? I’m looking at this 2015, and they sent me photos of the underside to show for rust and this is what they sent me
EDIT: Thank you all for your input. I didn’t realize my post seemed like clickbait! I genuinely just had no idea what to look for for rust. So thank you, I think it’s time to purchase!
Hey everyone!
I’m in the market for my first Wrangler, and I’m excited doing a bunch of research on what to buy. While I’ve been looking around, I’ve been terrified of rust. I just moved to the northeast and have never dealt with buying a vehicle that rusts out in the winters. Call me paranoid, but I had a dealer send me photos of the undercarriage that said it has always been treated with Woolwax, though I need a second opinion. I should say it’s a 2 hour drive to the dealer. I will be going soon to check in person, but can’t just stop by on a whim.
Is this even anything to worry about? Is it common for dealers to “hide” rust with the wax in attempts to cover it up? Any information on rust/preventatives are appreciated as I have developed an irrational fear of rust on cars
Thanks!
