Body problems of the 2007 Chevrolet Silverado 2500

We no longer have this vehicle, it was totaled out, air bags deployed, but there were no injuries as to the result.

I was making a left turn at an intersection when another vehicle slammed into my truck head on. My air bags did not even deploy. Although my vehicle was the larger of the two, I expected the bags to do their intended job, but they failed to do so. This was one year after the recall and general motors still don't have a remedy for the air bags.

The contact owns a 2007 Chevrolet Silverado 2500. The contact stated the frame of the vehicle was severely rusted, including the fuel line. The contact spoke with the dealer and was informed that nothing could be done. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 45,551.

I have a 2007 Chevrolet 3/4 ton pickup purchased new. I hauled 4 cattle syrup tubs which weigh 250 lbs a piece a total weight of 1000 pounds to my land lease which was about 70 miles from where I purchased the tubs. By the time I got to my lease the tubs had moved around bed. When I removed the tubs our of the pickup they had caved in both finder wells and separated the finder well from the bed causing about a 2-3 inch gap in the bed of by pickup. I have pictures of this. This pickup has 580000 miles on it and I can see the ground on the right side of the finder well by 2-3 inches. If Chevrolet is such a tough truck this should not of happened. I own a 2001 chevy 1/2 ton z71 have hauled the same amount of these tubs of 1000 lbs it dented the fender wells but never separated the bed. We own 6 Chevrolet pickups and have always been happy with gm products but this certainly makes you wonder about the build chevy tough moto. I would appreciate a response on how to handle this as I feel this is a defect in this bed to come apart the way that it did.
