Reply to comment by HeySquirrelFriends in TIL the best time to get your vehicle undercoated is actually in the spring/early summer. The salt from wintery roads is not as much of a culprit as damp and humid days are. by HeySquirrelFriends

I grew up in a small city in the Central Valley of California. There was a lot of agriculture around me, so I can see if they did that, but I did not lol

Undercoating is practically a must if you are living in a snowy country that uses roadsalt in winter.

People specifically buy cars from the Central Valley due to them being usually rust free even when they are 20-30 years old. With no undercoating needed other than the usually soundproofing coating.

The coastal regions get salt air.
