Consumer Description

We bought this vehicle used at Goodwin Chevrolet in Oxford Maine in November 2019. It has 80,000 on it. We were told by our mechanics yesterday that it won't take another sticker because of the frame being rusted. GM knew they were having problems with these frames on these vehicles. I don't have an extended warranty. So now we have a vehicle that is no good to us. Completely unacceptable. I have a November 14th appointment with Goodwin to look at this truck. No idea what to do next.
