Consumer Description

THE PAINT ON THE REAR WHEEL WELLS AS WELL AS THE PAIN ON THE RUNNING BOARDS ALL THE WAY BACK TO THE REAR QUARTER PANNELS IS RUSTING OUT. I FOUND YOUR WEBSITE AND THOUGHT THAT I MIGH BE COVERED, BUT APPARENTLY I AM NOT AND GM SAID THEY HAVE CHANGED THEIR PLANT TO OSHAWA, CANADA. THEY ALSO SAID THAT THEY HAVE CHANGED THEIR PAINT. WHEN I ASKED WHAT I SHOULD DO THEY SAID THAT IT IS PRETTY MUCH TOUGH LUCK. AND THAT IS ABOUT IT. ALSO THE COOLENT RETURN HOSE IN THE ENGINE GOES EVERY 2 YRS. AND AT CANADIAN TIRE IT COSTS. ABOUT 375$ TO REPLACE.
