I recently bought my 05 Mazda 3 sedan in early July with barely any noticeable rust.
But as soon as winter hit and we started getting all these snow. I then noticed more rust started showing on the bottom of both sides of my car.
Noticing it regrets me buying this Mazda but I gotta say in the pass 6 months it helped my father out a lot in terms of driving my everywhere.

Now with more and more rust showing do to salt everywhere. Is there anything I can really do about it, or should I just let it be and be saddened by my purchase?
How do you guys deal with the rusts?

thanks

P.S. I tried using the search engine top right of the web brower but it doesn't seem to be working for me :S

Well, the whole car should be krown sprayed every season to prevent rust. As far as taking care of the rust that is already there, that is up to you. It depends on how bad it is also, but it's going to have to be sanded/chipped off, and repainted. If the rust is bad enough, you'll need to take it to a bodyshop for sure.

I am having a rust issue with my driver side rear wheel well. If anyone on here can suggest a bodyshop that has reasonable prices to repair this that would be gladly appreciated

Hey bud, did you get your car rust proofed before winter and it still started to rust?
