Tailgate rust (around badge?) is quite hard to get paid for. There has been success, but it really depends on your local dealer/bodyshop. The will say it's a mechanical fault where the badge has touched the body or that jewelry has caused it or something similar, they also may say that "It's a folded panel so not covered" or something similar... We all know it's caused by water sitting there, so good luck!
