I am original owner of a defective 2001 Chevrolet silverado. The last time gmpp with gm dealer repair the underwarranty repairs took 6 weeks there are only 26. 000 miles on this truck. Obviously this is a defect in its design and application. (see ptior complaints) tires flew off, altering of service contracts on and on.
