I have had the same problem and contacted SubZero and the only thing they said was "we will offer you a new refrigerator for $5000.. There is no way to fix the problem." I was appalled by their answer... Sub Zero will not stand by their products and want to force you to buy a new one a slight discount.. That is sad..Why should anyone have to go through this after spending over $6,000 to $8,000 for a refrigerator.. I have used their refrigerators for over 30 years but this is a complete joke.. They know they have a problem but won't take care of you at all..

Hi; Yes I would say its covered under a warranty. Trying to get the manufacture to repair it for free maybe not. Thats a questionable area. I would argue that the painting process had a problem that day. But if no warranty open door and dry off really good then brush with a steel brush to bring up rust then spray or paint on a rust eliminator. After it dries You can call Your local paint store for some appliance epoxy paint. Do a smooth job from the begining and a good flat surface will be ready for Your door gaskets...alpharome416
