    Default Hi!

    Hey guys,

    Just leased a new 2015 Mazda3 GS - excited to get it!

    Just a quick question - I'd still have to get it rustproofed right? If so, should i just do it at the dealership, or are there recommendations on this forum?

    Happy to join the forum!

    ~ Ace

    Welcome and congrats on the purchase. You can rustproof at the dealer or from Krown, both do good work. Krown should be cheaper and drilling is recommended.

    Edit: lakeshore Krown is/was a TM3 sponsor. The Markham location is also pretty good. Been taking my family's cars there for a few years now.

    Thanks guys! I'm just wondering if the rust proofing is better at the dealship because its only a 3 year lease. So if it starts rusting after 3 years, then it won't be my problem

    Welcome. You're leasing for 3 years but are you planning on keeping it afterwards? I guess I wouldn't bother rust proofing if I wasn't going to keep it.

    Welcome! Got my rustproofing from the dealership but plan on keeping the car for a long time. Krown might be the more economical solution if you're not keeping it past the 3 year lease.
