Drivers side front wheel arch is rusting from the outside. Is this covered by SEAT 12 anti-rust policy? Pictures are below-
Rust already.

Judging by the pic your car is low and been rubbing on the arch right?

No, its still got the standard factory fitted suspension, passenger side is fine. The arch liner has come away as the lip holding it in place has rusted away.
Sorry should have said looks like it been low at some point in its life or had bigger wheels. Can't think what else would cause that damage.

these cars are good for not havin rust, mines coming upto 13 years old and still no sign of rust. I don't know if it's covered best bet would give Seat a call.
Firstly how's your service history looking !!
They will look at that if not full service history they won't be interested also they check the thickness of paint and probably tell you it's been painted at some point these are just the useful tricks they use.... They honor most things as long as the service history is up to date or give a good will....

They won't touch it ... paintwork warranty is only 3yrs. They will argue it is paintwork warranty not anti-corrosion which is 12yrs.
I have some rust bubbles in the same place above the headlights on the bonnet that I'm arguing with SEAT at present. Car is immaculate with a FSH - they dont want to know.

It's Defo an issue with our cars then... Can you send me photos? I'm going to badger SEAT again...
iv got a little bit of rust bubble coming through on my roof, spoke to seat uk who told me to take it to my local seat dealer and yeah pretty much there not interested, just by looking at it they knew it wouldn't be covered by the warranty apparently! i should find another seat approved workshop to measure the paint and try again but really cant imagine that there going to get it sorted!
Had the leon for over 5 years, rust has only become noticeable in the last 6 months. Car has FSH and is cleaned and polished regularly.
Been out but forgot lol noticed my front sidelight is out so when i sort that i'll grab a pic
