Decidedly, it is a problem of passivation or post-treatment. Especially, incorrect the pH or concentration. When it comes to post-treatment, pay your attention on rinsing or drying. Rinse water is often too acidic and it may cause real damages of passivation layer during drying. Some trivalent passivations need drying in really hot air and then conditioning 24 hours before operating. If not - the corrosion resistance is significantly reduced.

Hi there,
please check the drying of the component, secondly the porousity of the base material and thirdly the packing material and lastly note the storage components are away from the plating zone where there is lot of acidic fumes.
