"...mag chloride is corroding rubber car parts faster than in the past, 
he said. “We see the windshield wipers lasting half as long as they used 
to,” he said. “We see all kinds of corrosion underneath the 
car.”Electrical components, covered in plastic, often corrode and trip 
check engine lights. Brodin then has to check the electrical system to 
determine what’s going on. If the plastic wire covers are gone, Brodin 
sprays a sealer on the wires to prevent further electrical problems.

Car rust and corrosion are caused by acid created when a salt is 
dissolved by the moisture in the air. Rock salt remains a crystal until 
the humidity reaches 70 percent, which doesn’t happen much during the 
winter. But magnesium chloride dissolves when there is only about 20 to 
30 percent humidity. “Which means that your vehicle if magnesium 
chloride is sprayed on it, is wet constantly,” Baboian said. The acid 
stays on your car and slowly eats away at the paint and metal."
