Looking at buying a Q5 from Minneapolis, should I be worried about salt damage?

Looking at buying a Q5 from my local (GA) Audi dealer, it's a 2015 Q5 with 30k miles and they are going to CPO it. Should I have any concerns of damage from driving on salty roads in Minneapolis?

My brother just came from Ohio where there us lots of salt. He said it is unbelievable the damage salt does to a car from just three years. So, to answer your question, yes, I'd be concerned.
Wishing you best of luck with your vehicle search.

I wouldn't worry about it because of CPO. They would check corrosion as a part of the inspection. Also, people who take care of their cars can completely avoid damage. So a blanket statement won't be applicable. But I would go forward considering the dealership is willing to CPO the car.
