Is It Normal for the Dashboard Frame to Rust?
1 Answers
It is normal for the dashboard frame to rust. Here is a detailed explanation of dashboard frame rust: 1. Not prone to rusting: The dashboard frame is located inside the passenger compartment, where the corrosion environment is very mild. During window tinting, if water sprayed onto the windshield is not properly waterproofed by the installer, it may flow into the dashboard gaps, affecting the frame and causing rust. Many reports of rust in new cars likely fall into this category. In fact, simply ensuring proper waterproofing during tinting can prevent this issue. 2. Function: This component only serves to position and secure parts such as the dashboard, air conditioning ducts, and instruments, and bears very little stress.
