Extreme rust, tailgate cables broke in use, had to replace. Tailgate still won't latch properly, dropping open while driving/hauling fairly often; brake line rusted out, replaced before had accident; whole frame rusted - under carriage//tire wells/drive shaft/around reece hitch so I worry about pulling trailer/hailing. Horn has rusted off. Only 77,000 miles as I do not drive it daily, just to work around my place or pickup/haul/trailer something. Gm needs recall to address this rust issue because it is a major safety issue.
My truck was parked outside my house and this drunk driver hit my truck in the middle of the night. And mest up all of one side of the truck including my engine,baby seats and tires and windows.
2011: I lost my brakes while hauling 2 horses in the mountains of western maryland. As I was traveling downhill, I was extremely fortunate to have been able to turn into a business that was "uphill" an used gravity to stop. This was extremely scary. I had my truck towed and and learned that my brake lines rusted out. 2014: I took my truck in to have an oil change and learned that my fuel lines were leaking. I had no warning and obviously I replaced them. I have also replaced my air conditioning twice.
