I purchased this truck used and was able to use for a bout a month before both rear spring perches broke allowing the springs to rest under the pickup body, after replacing them the brake lines ruptured because of rust another poor quality product from GM !
The contact owns a 2000 GMC Sierra 2500. While driving approximately 35 mph, the rear of the vehicle slightly lowered towards the ground. The vehicle was driven with caution to the contact's residence. The contact inspected the vehicle and noticed that that the driver side main frame rail was fractured in the center. Additionally, the passenger side main rail was partially fractured. The failure was beyond repair. The contact mentioned that the brake line and rear cross member near the fuel tank were completely corroded. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 92,000.
Front crossmember welds severely rusted and rotted out. Crossmember about ready to break loose from frame. Front frame rails severely rusted and rotted out. Front suspension parts severely rusted and rotting away. Rear frame severely rusted and rotted out. Shock mounts about ready to break loose from frame. Absolutely unacceptable and pathetic for a 13 year old, 32,000 dollar truck to be un-drivable and in this condition.
