Description of the problem | I am complaining about the safety of my truck frame. It is completely rusted through in a few spots and i don't know how safe it is to keep driving. This is a combination of poor engineering/ cheap steel from gm's side and the highly corrosive chemicals that are put on the roads in new england from the dot. Gm has clearly stated that they will not help me with this problem and i am on my own to cover the cost of a new frame or a new vehicle. |
