Hi folks picked up my brand new Yaris cross 4 th December and recently noticed rust around the welds of both boot hinges. Car going into garage next Thursday but just wondering if anyone else experienced the same problem. My car is white so rust staining shows up more clearly
Random thought... could there be some kind of additional shim under the hinge to correct a body/tailgate alignment issue. It's not possible to make out clearly from the pics. Also is the metal work on the body along that top edge 'true' and free of obvious distortion. Zoom in on the area in front of the hinge.
