excessive rust/corrosion on chassis and suspension components excessive rust/corrosion on chassis and suspension components excessive rust/corrosion on chassis and suspension components excessive rust/corrosion on chassis and suspension components excessive rust/corrosion on chassis and suspension components excessive rust/corrosion on chassis and suspension components

Just purchased this truck on July 2014 New! Haven't driven it much and shows lots of rust on chassis and suspension components. I want a replacement, vehicle is too new for this type of issue. I have a 98 Chevy S10 that has no rust so what's the deal Chevy?

Update from Aug 12, 2014: Upon thorough inspection I noticed the chassis undercoating has the consistency of clay dough. Peels off immediately! This vehicle has less than 750miles on the odometer and has had 3 warranty issues since purchased last month. I will be requesting to replace the entire truck or give me my money back! I'm upset that a new vehicle like this exhibits so many issues especially on it's last model year!

Update from Aug 18, 2014: Just came from the dealership they claim Chevy has told them they can't do anything until the rust penetrates the chassis. This rust is penetrating! It's ridiculous that GM claims this is normal. The chassis coating is like wax, rubs right of with a finger rub. The tubing part of the frame is already penetrated the metal is now bulging! How is this normal? Even Wiring rubbing on the chassis peels the the coating, so what about road debris or gravel? Aren't these trucks built for work? I don't even use my truck much, haven't even carried hauled or towed anything! Fix this problem GM or return my money! !! I will be filing a complaint with the NHTSA this ignorance will not be tolerated!!
