I came out to my truck one day and the cab was touching the back of my box. I look under it and the frame was broken and rusted out on both side by the gas tank. Vehicle I'd beyond repair and not drivable. Only has 181xxx miles on it.

The chrome on the Chevrolet badge on the front grill has started to peel. While washing the truck the chrome, sliver, slice my finger open like a razor blade.

Hello im reporting a problem I have noticed about rust on the under bodies of the chevy and GMC pick ups. It is a widespread problem and needs to be resolved. There are too many vehicles reporting this problem to make it a coincidence. I myself have this problem where my frame has now cracked for the second time. People are complaining more and more and our safety is at stake. Please whatever can be done to bring gm to recognize this problem can and will save a lot of lives as well as hundreds of thousands of dollars. Thank you.

Truck was taken to dealer for regular maintenance, when raised on the hoist the frame started to collapse and brake. Service people pointed out the problem and told me and to consider getting a new truck and advised I probably should not drive this one anywhere as it could brake apart. They stated they haven't seen this in a truck maintained as this one has been. In looking on-line I now see this is a very common problem in 1999 to 2002 Silverado's, with 100's of complaints. Gm won't talk about it and states any recall has to come from your agency. This is serious, not sure if any injuries are attributed to this (yet) but there surely will be. I can't believe this is not be looked at with the number of on-line complaints and reports.
