I would take out the plastic piece inside and look for any rust, although it's tough to get a good look. may need a light and small mirror.

Look behind the plastic rocker panel cover too - big area where rust can hide.
Look from the inside of the car here as well.
Those were the 2 bad areas on my car and a lot of the hatches i see.

Do Not PM me your technical questions. Post them in the forum!

What will happen if you do not fix rust?

it will move to your ass and begin to eat you


If you dont take care of it chances are it will spread and eventually just chip/brake off leaving holes and empty spots. So basically take care of it ASAP!
