while washing my wife's 2014 Golf today I noticed corrosion on the passenger side rear sill. I have attached two photos. The car has low miles and is in perfect condition. Would this corrosion be covered with the 12 year anti corrosion warranty?

the warranty says that it has to be perforated, as in all the way through to the other side. Looks like something scratched to the base metal in those spots, and rust is creeping a bit starting from there. You could sand it down and hit it with touch up paint or POR15, or wait it out till its actually through to make a claim. Or have the whole panel resprayed on your own dime. Or drill a hole and let it rust a bit more and be fraudulent. Lots of options.
