    This video exposes the problem with body undercover in high road salt usage areas.

    The car in this video was evidently rustproof improperly without removing the body undercover before being applied.

    If you buy a new car and have rustproofing applied, the body undercover need to be removed.

    Buying a used car needs to be inspected with the undercover removed.
