2015 Toyota 4Runner Rocker Bars

I bought these running boards in August of 2020. The looked nice, and even though the holes didn't match up perfect, I got them to go on without too much effort. Fast forward to December 1st. These are already showing rust spots all over the place. Yes, less than 4 months and they are rusting. And they've only seen the summer months. In the winter they'll probably rust overnight. LOL. Maybe I got a defective pair and I've submitted for a warranty claim. We'll see if the vendor stands behind their products. I'd hold off on buying these or this brand until you see how they handle claims such as this.
