I have this on my passenger side door. Reading the warranty manual, though, tells me that corrosion is only covered up to 36k miles. I only have 23k miles and mine is an 02.

Well, the corrosion warranty covers "rust-through", so I guess you have to wait for a hole; but I sure thought it was longer than 36,000 miles. It seems that this is a result of another one of their cost saving measures.

Both my parents and I have extended cabs, and rust is heavily apparent on all doors and on the tailgate bottoms. I guess they used a different steel for the doors than they did for the body ?!? Anyway, I'm not happy with Ford's quality over this.

yea me too, i got some rust starting again after they fixed it the first time,although looks like fords attempt to fix it was slop some paint over it i wasnt happy so i brought it back and they fixed it again, looked good for a bit but its on its way back again and the tailgate i have same problem, i planned on keeping my truck along time but in a few years i might not have any door bottoms... i was told the rust warranty was 5 years so mine being an o2 i will bring my back in bout another year in a half...
