Q
I COULDN'T help but notice the nonsense the Ford service manager was saying about rust in Fords (Carsguide, June 19). Ask him about door hinges where they join to the pillar. On white and silver cars the rust is shocking. On dark cars it can't be seen unless the hinge is removed. The boot and bonnet hinges are the same. This problem started in the EA model and is still there. I recently retired from Ford after 43 years and, having owned EB, EF and BA II Falcons, all with the same problem, I have turned to Toyota.

ARUST is clearly a problem in many Fords. We have heard from many owners, particularly owners of the Territory, who complain about rust in their cars.
