"For model year 2019, GM started using aluminum on hinged body panels.
i.e. hood, doors and tailgate."
You are a little late with that date.
My 2001 Yukon has an aluminum tailgate, and I believe GM used aluminum hoods and possibly trunk lids on certain cars well before that.
The Yukon tailgate has aluminum "cancer" where the wiper arm pivot passes through and in the area where the gas support struts attach.
4 or 5 years ago, I asked on the "Paint and Bodywork" Forum here what could be done to stop the corrosion of the aluminum from spreading and popping more paint off and got NO replies.
For rusting steel, phosphoric acid will "kill"/neutralize rust,goes anyone know what can be done with corroding aluminum?
