Hi,

Got some tailgate corrosion on my 2003 vRS estate.

I took some photos of this and spoke to my local dealer (White Dove) whom sent them off to Skoda. However i've now heard back and they (Skoda) are claiming that the corrosion:

'has been visible for some time and should have been reported prior to this'.

As such, they've refused to do anything under the corrosion warranty.

Do you guys here think i've got much of a chance of getting them to change their mind? If so, how do you think I ought to go about it? The corrosion has been present for a while but I have only had the car myself for 9 weeks or so....

Cheers,

Mike
