    My first F-12 that had the corrosion around both vents was manufactured in October, 2015. I had a much earlier car 5/2013 and a late car, June, 2016 that never developed the corrosion. My theory is the Fall/ 2015 and Spring/ 2016 cars are the most susceptible.

    I hope this is correct.

    I now have paint bubbling on the lower portion of both rear wings and in the bottom corner of the door aperture where the sill meets the B pillar towards the rear wheels. I believe that this is becoming a common issue on F12s that are around 10 years old as mine is

    Ferrari Atlanta sent me to their paint shop for factory respray of the rear 1/4 where corrosion happens on those air vents. the paint shop told me they had an 812 with similar issues so answer is yes.

    what are rear wings? you referring the rear air vents where the corrosion starts around the steel mesh/screws touching the aluminum body panels?

    Apologies - no, not the air vents. In the UK wing is the term for what is known as a fender in the US. The corrosion in on the lower part of the inner arch of the wing/fender

    Likely not an issue here in the US as we don't drive in the rain!
