Frame is completely rotted & any service station I take my truck to for service or inspection refuses to work on my truck due to safety from accelerated frame rust & rot. I found upon further investigation that gm refuses to fix the problem. I now have a vehicle that is not road worthy & unsafe even thou it has low miles & is excellent condition, I am unable to get a state inspection on this vehicle & I am not able to drive my vehicle in my state due to this problem.
The spare tire hoist failed causing my spare tire to fall off. Luckily this happened in my driveway. If this had happened on the road it could have caused a fatality to anyone behind me. The cable appears to be the same material that the tailgate cables were made of. The cables were already recalled by gm.
