Consumer Description

WAS DRIVING MY 2000 1500 AND HAD BRAKE FAILURE. UPON INSPECTION NOT ONLY DID I FIND EXTENSIVE RUST ON LINES BUT MY REAR SHACKLES ARE ROTTING THROUGH AND SOME PLACES ON THE FRAME. STARTED TO THINK THERE NO WAY THIS SHOULD NOT BE HAPPENING TO THIS TRUCK. ONLY 140000 MILES THIS HAS GOT TO BE A CASE OF POOR QUALITY. NOT ONLY IS THIS A SAFETY ISSUE AND SHOULD BE CHECKED ON BUT IT IS AN EXPENSIVE FIX. I DID SLIDE OFF THE ROAD BUT I CAME TO A SAFE STOP IN A FIELD LUCKILY MY E-BRAKE WORKED AND NOBODY ELSE WAS AROUND. COULD YOU PLEASE INVESTIGATE THIS AND TAKE CARE OF IT. CHEVROLET SHOULD STAND BY THEIR PRODUCT BUT THEY DON'T CARE ABOUT US, THEY JUST WANT THEIR MONEY. ALSO THERE IS A LOT OF RUST ON BODY OF TRUCK, LIKE ACTUAL HOLES IN BEDSIDE AND PASSENGER SIDE ROCKER PANEL IS BAD. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME AND CONSIDERATION ,SINCERELY CHEVY TRUCK OWNER:( *TR
