Sierra 1500 Z71 5.3L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 61,000 miles

Noticed the paint on my hood,feneders and roof all have bubbles. Took it to the dealer wher I purchased it brand new 6 years earlier, they had the painter look at it. The painter said looks like when the paint was applied there was moisture on the vehicle. This is clearly the manufacturer's fault. The dealer talked with GM and said that since the truck's warranty was only 36 months or 36,000 miles that they wouldn't do anything for me! I have purchased nothing but GM vehicles since I was a teen, 6 of them were brand new. I doubt I will ever buy GM again. I intend to let the paint speak for itself......... when people see it I am sure they will think twice about buying from GM. Great advertising for them!
