    That's an American article so I'm assuming they're referring to the power-shift autos rather than the IB5 manual we're used to in the UK.

    It seems like a  typical "slow news day" article that was written by a journalist that has no interest experience with working on cars but instead spent the day googling common faults before writing a generic article.

Why wouldn't you just say rust if that's the case? Or does something magical happen with car bodywork I'm yet to discover? Or how about the writer didn't have a clue what they were on about so just listed some generic waffle instead.
