I have a 2001. What is the corrosion coverage on this year?

I went over my 2001 with a fine tooth comb today and all looks well except the release handle on the rear latch. It is corroded and the paint has a small blister.

Not a big deal, I can nip it, especially in this dry climate, but if this thing has a 5/100 corrosion coverage like the last new Toyota of mine had.......
 
2001 LC are 60 Month/unlimited miles

LX's are 72 Month/unlimited miles

Mine had the same, but I'm in the rustbelt (Ontario, Canada). However, if you have this make sure that you also check under the weatherstripping close to the handle. Mine had significant amounts of blisters/paint chipping/rust there. It was fixed under warranty.

After this I drove it straight to Krown (sorry, Canada only) to get it coated. I don't understand why the previous owner spent CDN$100,000 on a vehicle, but was too cheap to spend the $100/year to get it protected.
