My handle is starting to rust after about 5 years. I have always kept her covered. Is this covered under warranty?Or is this normal ?

I think the warranty is only for rust-through. That kind of rust is normal insofar as I think they all do it. Other than cosmetic it shouldn't be a problem for many years. Tackle it with a file/sandpaper and BBQ paint I suppose if you want.

I'd just hit it with some WD40. It's very common.

They don't have those lids anymore, so you will get a bolt on handle style one.
