I purchased a 2011 chevy silverado on 3/16/20 from a car dealership. 69k miles when purchased.88k now.I recently went to have a fuel pump repaired that happened out of the blue and was told that the frame is completely rusted out. I looked online only to discover that this is a ongoing problem for these trucks. Makes no sense how I have a truck I owe 14k on and now find out my frame is rusted to the point I could have a accident.
The dashboard on the vehicle is cracked around the area where the passengers side airbag is. The crack originated early on and was minimal and I was advised by the dealership that this was due to warping and not an issue with GMC pickups. I've come to find out from chat boards and other friend, coworkers and family that they have similar issues with their GMC dashboards on both pickup trucks and SUV vehicles.
On Friday (August 21, 2020), we had an appointment at a shop to have brakes replaced and tire rotation done. The mechanic had called and asked me to come to the shop to come look at the underside of the truck. Upon arriving, he showed me the frame. It is rusted all the way through from in front of the rear tires and all the way back. The rest of the frame is in good condition, however.. the mechanic at this point would not work on the vehicle due to the condition and its compromised safety. As of right now, the vehicle can't be driven due to safety issues. This vehicle is only 9 years old and has been driven less than 20,000 miles in the 3 years we have had it. It is mainly driven to work which is less than 2 miles away. The truck has been serviced for regular routine care always. The truck was purchased in 2017 by a GM certified dealer with only 55, xxx miles. It currently has 74, xxx miles and is now basically junk due to the condition of the frame!!
Was driving in motion straight during icy conditions on freeway and truck slid out of control and I drove through ditch never stopped once and side air bags deployed and seat belts all froze up and ceiling fabric was ruined and torn from deployed airbags. I never hit anything and continued to drive right back onto highway.
My truck is in great condition and is parked in our garage or works covered garage 90% of the time. So way has the dash cracked everywhere? I see on line that this is a common problem and has been blamed on leaving in the sun but my truck isn't in that category. I would send pictures if I thought someone would care. Call me, I'd love to talk to someone.
My dash is cracked in multiple places and completely broken apart in some spots. I have managed to install a dash cover but I feel with this being such a common issue and a potential safety issue GM should be held accountable.
My dash started cracking with big cracks it was parked in the driveway and when I went to get in I noticed my dashboard had started cracking IN3 different places
While driving, the stabiltrak, ABS lights come on and the vehicle powers down and barely moves. This has happened on several occasions, mostly during cold weather, although it has happened in warm weather at highway speeds, creating a dangerous situation while trying to maneuver out of traffic. On one occasion, the vehicle was towed to a Chevrolet dealership and when checked over they reported that nothing could be found. The vehicle operated normally after sitting there all night. This is dangerous! I have read many instances of the same thing happening to other Silverado owners. Please check into this. This has happened at least 5 times, the latest around January of 2019.
