My mate has a 67 plate Sportage and has an issue with rust on the front cross member below the radiator its basically rusted all over thankfully everything else seems good, could some of you kind chaps please have a quick look at your cars to see if there if there is any sign of corrosion on this part, it can be easily seen through the grill...thanks in advance.

Oh and the local Kia Platinum dealer has been absolutely useless in dealing with this matter as has Kia customer services who will not answer his emails.

Has it had the annual bodywork checks?

Has the car been in an accident and the replacement part not prepared/painted correctly?

Mines a 66 plate and looks fine.

His car was a Kia Approved used so it has all its stamps and full warranty...I will mention the annual body work for him to check...thanks.

I don't think so all the surrounding metalwork is perfectly fine...there are no signs of any paintwork being done.
