Joyce,
There was a small problem a while back. SOME of us got some bad vents. We got ONE. The other 3 have never had a problem.
The problem was in the manufacturing, not enough plating on the steel. We were still in warranty and it was replaced.
Think I remember someone else addressing this situation on the forum, maybe a search?? Seems to me they painted it. Al says if any more of ours do rust, he will be painting them.
If you decide to go the replacement route, Al reminds me that you need to be very careful to get the new vent completely sealed, so no leaks.
