What to do if your Renault Trafic has rust problems?
Years 2001-2014

Answer

Modern cars really hardly have rust problems, precisely because there are relatively few metal parts: most of the bodywork is made of fiberglass or deformable plastics, which reduce costs and increase driver safety and in the event of an accident. However, there are metal parts, especially in commercial vehicles, where the floor, wheel arches and cross members are still in metal. The problem is that the metal parts are structural, so if they have been neglected the vehicle risks no longer being safe.
