When winter weather arrives, what also comes with it is the use of road salt, which exacerbates truck corrosion.
Heavy- and medium-duty truck OEMs recognize how costly and dangerous corrosion can be. As a result, they aim to mitigate the problem with anti-corrosion coatings on key parts of the vehicle.
Nearly all modern trucks come standard with anti-corrosion coatings on at least some of the rust-prone metal components. The body, undercarriage, wheels and areas within the truck’s splash zone receive particular attention.
