This is just plain false.

Places with lots of rain, lots of humidity, and no snow, that are far from salt air do not rust anything like cars that drive on salted roads, or live in a salt air environment.

And those two (salted roads versus salt air) have different rust patterns from each other.

The linked article is a Canadian website. If they lived in the American South they'd know they were lying.

I second this. Ireland is much wetter than England but we don't ice our roads like they do and the main issue with imports is rust. Changing the brakes on an English import is a nightmare due to rust where as there's almost no rust on Irish cars
