If it was mine, I would find a high-quality exterior clear caulking, seal it, and it’s done.

I think our “rust warranty” is RUST THROUGH, not any rust.

I would clean that seam with alcohol, then run a bead of clear sealant into the "crack ". Its probably a flexible seam sealer that wasn't applied correctly at the factory, and cured that way.

@Mtpockets @four low

That's exactly what my husband suggested. I usually go along with whatever he thinks so will go that route. ? Thanks for the feedback.

Here's the response from Jeep Cares:

"Sorry to hear that! Unfortunately, our team cannot speculate whether this is normal or not, as we are not trained technicians. If you believe that this component is damaged we do recommend working with a dealer to resolve it. We can provide a list of others in your area if you'd like a second opinion."

Oh well. Either way I'm over it at this point.
