HappyGorilla Posted 6, March 2018 Report Share Posted 6, March 2018 (edited) Hey Gents, I gotta odd one to ask fellow RS owners. Does anyone have rust bubbling up around the hatch area of the hatch handle? And there seems to be a hole where I think water is leaking in. I'm not the first owner and wonder if everyone else's is like that also....? If anyone else has checked please let me know I gotta get this fixed asap. See following photos Edited 6, March 2018 by HappyGorilla To many pics Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marsch Posted 6, March 2018 Report Share Posted 6, March 2018 The round hole is actually there to let water out if it somehow gets into the hatch. It should be "outside" of the rubber sealing of the trunk. I've experienced about the same "bubbling" with my old car but that was 20 y/o Peugeot 306. A good painter and varnisher should get rid of that without much of a problem. You should just make sure to find out what is causing the problem in the first place before you visit one.

HappyGorilla Posted 6, March 2018 Author Report Share Posted 6, March 2018 Thanks mate I thought one hole was needed but wasn't sure about the other. I will have to investigate this asap before winter hits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benst Posted 29, March 2018 Report Share Posted 29, March 2018 Better check the corrosion warranty. I’d be very surprised if that wasn’t covered.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

benst Posted 5, April 2018 Report Share Posted 5, April 2018 Please explain? All cars come with a Warranty against structural defects like corrosion and it’s usually 5 years or more.So perhaps yours will still be under warranty.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ar5boosted Posted 5, April 2018 Report Share Posted 5, April 2018 Looks like somebody was lazy when programming the Painting Robot Either too much or too little paint just there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marsch Posted 8, May 2018 Report Share Posted 8, May 2018 ^Are we a little confused today? My Clio has a (anti) corrosion guarantee that runs 144 month/12 years. I'd guess that's the same for the Megane? You can check that by registering (your car) at "MY Renault". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems to only be available to European Reno owners. Can't find Aussie version. Edited 15, May 2018 by chris043 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marsch Posted 15, May 2018 Report Share Posted 15, May 2018 Don't get turned away that easy. I don't know how it is with the Meganes but I'd guess they've the same warranty/guarantee regulations as a C3RS and there it's 12 years for corrosion. And that's what's the case here as it's not just a paint related issue which may actually be out of warranty by now. I'd have thought that Renault offers that MY Renault thing worldwide.
