GMC truck frames cracking, rotting out, braking due to poor design and coating and GM won't step up and take responsibility as Toyota has. The consumer gets an unsafe vehicle because of frames giving out well before the body, the frames should be strong. In under 2 years the frame went from strong and safe to now rusted up scrap metal. American quality should be of great standards in my up most opinion being an army veteran. General Motors should compansate owners or buy them back as Toyota has.
