Cars rust from moisture (rain, snow, etc.), especially collecting in crevices where it can't readily evaporate and where dirt also is trapped and holds the moisture. Additional corrosion occurs in areas that use salt on roads in the winter. The salt not only is corrosive to the metal but will also damage the car's finish.
