NHTSA Complaint #11576705 — 2014 CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500

I am the owner of a 10 year old Chevrolet Silverado 1500 with less than 82000 miles. Chevrolet has Service Bulletins out regarding frame rust, but I was unable to have a dealership repair the surface rust for the 7 years I have owned the truck. My frame is now rusted out to the point it is not safe to operate and will cost over $15000 for Chevrolet to repair since the Service Bulletin was not resolved during the visits to dealerships for service during the Factory Warranty Period. My truck has never been abused. As Chevrolet stated in [XXX] , this may be a result of a manufacturing issue. This issue is beyond a cosmetic issue and does affect the safety of the vehicle, the driver, passengers, property, and people around. This issue is not isolated to me and my truck, but many others. Thanks to this not being looked at as a safety concern I am now left without a safe method of transportation. Frame rust and deterioration needs to be upgraded to a recall, just as Toyota. The frame build is similar so has the same results. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
