Rust under bottom of hatch taillight (recurring) and on bottom lip of interior of driver's side front door. No other doors are rusted.; Driver's door weatherstrip or paint seal seems broken, forming trough for rain. Could be from deformation of undercarriage owing to no flat jack points for hydraulic jack, or from prior from repair of outside plastic molding not tight enough to prevent water from entering door and draining out bottom. Sanded rust spots. Sprayed rusty metal primer up under taillight housing since cannot remove it without removing entire trunk assembly. Applied primer, main color, and clear top coat from spray can with queue tip. Rubbed marine silicone over bottom lip on interior of door to block rain from pooling.. |
