Description of the problem	Purchased vehicle in aug/sep 2016 with no issues. Had it in storage for the winter in illinois while i was deployed. Took it out of storage in july and moved to florida in september of 2017. Since november of 2018, until now i've had numerous problems with the vehicle due to rust. The car is 4 yrs old and i've had to replace the entire exhaust system, part of the frame and now have a loud screech coming from my right rear wheel due to the rust. All that in the past 10 months. I've tried to voice my complaints with ford motor company but they seem to believe that rust is normal when driven on salted highways for an extended period of time. I've spent almost $6k on my vehicle in the past 8 months and forsee another large bill when i take it in. Is anyone else having reported issues with their explorer showing signs of rust in an extremely short amount of time. I grew up in northern minnesota where i drove my 1996 t bird on salted roads the majority of the year from 2003-2011 and never had issues with rust at all. I fear that my vehicle wasn't treated properly during the manufacturing of it.
