Protection against corrosion
Your car is provided with reliable protection against corrosion. At production of the car special materials and sheetings which are applied on the most part of details are applied. Anticorrosive processing of a body promotes preservation of good appearance, durability and durable operation. Some details located in a motor compartment or under the bottom of a body and which are usually not visible from outside practically do not reduce the reliability because of superficial corrosion. Therefore such details do not need anticorrosive protection.
