Sierra 1500

  • 89,000 miles
Excessive rust from middle of under carriage on back lead part failures. One of two straps holding up gas tank, rear strap, broke and rear of gas tank dropped about 4 inches. I was not driving the truck, just noticed then gasped. I replaced the gas tank strap. Research on internet reveals excessive rust for these trucks is common. After hearing about the Toyota Tundra dropping a spare tire due to excessive rust, I figure a part failure possibly leading to a dropping a gas tank qualifies too.
