wh-1000xm3 - Sony refuses to pay for the repair of rusty screws

At 16-April 2021 I sent my wh-1000xm3 headphones for reparation in ST Estrela repair services in Lisbon. They got a ver high noise after they were

They are within the guarantee period. The reparation report states that I should pay for the repair (138,22€) because, according to ST Estrela this noise is caused by humidity leading to the rust of the screws. I contested this conclusion because there are overwhelming evidence that this is a recurring problem with this model. So, I contacted the Sony assistance right after I received the report. Mr. Rui Oliveira, representing Sony assistance, just told me 29-04-2021), that the humidity problem comes from my ears, and disregarded all the evidence I sent Sony services with many pictures showing that the rust of the product screws is common in this model, and that I only used this product in airports and planes. I will not pay for the reparation of this product because it is not my responsibility that Sony uses screws that rust and ear cushions which allow the entrance of humidity.

I want a response from a sony representant on this issue because, the way I see it, Mr. Rui Oliveira is makink this a personal case and is not acting as a professional by only looking at evidence.
