So apparently the rust on the B-pillars is normal for these cars. I want to change the pillars but i'm not sure where i can get them. Dealership will probably charge me up the *** for them. Anyone knows of a good place where to order them?

I found alot of those covers/stickers but that really wont fix it. I also dont want to get them chromed would rather the plain black.

 

? post a pic if you can, i dont have any rust on my car anywhere im curious as to what you mean?

 

I don't have my car with me this week but this weekend I'll post a pic fo sho. It's the black b pillar that is bubbling. It's so ugly it pisses me off

 

wow i understand what you are talking about but i have never heard of this issue hmm best i can think is to take it to a body shop and see if the can clean it off an repaint the pillars

 

I've read somewhere that these are just clipped in place. A body shop would probably cost more then just buying new ones. But I'll check that route as well.

 

ya i dont know if they are detachable from the car, ill have a look at mine, but be sure they arent rusting up from the door

 

If the rust is coming from the inside of the door out through the B pillar then go to a dealership and they will probably cover it under the rust warranty. I had a door replaced for free by infiniti due to rust.

 

BUMP - djkace77 is on the right track with this direction.

I have a sedan and had all 4 doors replaced complete (well not the door panels) but the complete door shell including the B pillar.

Only 2 'qualified' but I pushed for all 4. Perfect fix, and near perfect match... nothing is 100%, but you would never know

 

Rust warranty? I bought the car used any additional details? I will search but insider might be cool. Keep in mind the car has 200k miles h:

 

The warranty was extended to 10 years specifically for rust on this area as it is a common issue. I already had mine replaced once and there's signs of slight rust again in this area. I had all 4 door shells replaced at the time. There's a TSB or bulletin that mentions the warranty being extended for it. Do a search on this forum, there was a thread about it as well

 

Here I found this:

No warrranty booklet but I'll def call the number.

 

does this only apply to the sedans?
i have a coupe and the rust is at both rear fenders.
i brought it to the dealer several times (X5) to no avail.
i still have the fender rusting.

 

I believe the warranty extension applies only to the door pillars and door frame area as there is an issue with them. For your fenders, maybe if it falls under the standard 7 year warranty, but they will say it's not covered if it's from a rock chip

 

Yeah... I too doubt the dealer will do anything about it but it's sure worth a try!
