FRAMES IS UNSAFE (CRACKED) PASSAGER SIDE DOOR NOTICED THIS 09/02/20

VEHICLE SAT IDLE FOR A FEW YEARS BEFORE MY OWNERSHIP, THEN WAS IN CONSTANT MOTION ON HIGHWAYS AND CITY STREETS FOR 2 YEARS IN MY POSSESSION. UNSURE HOW AN 11 YEAR OLD VEHICLE COULD HAVE THIS HAPPEN, BUT AT SOME POINT THE VEHICLE DEVELOPED 2 LARGE CRACKS IN THE FRAME (ONE ON THE DRIVE SIDE AND ONE OF THE PASSENGER SIDE, BOTH JUST BEHIND THE DOORS OF THEIR RESPECTIVE SIDES OF THE VEHICLE) CAUSING THE BED OF THE TRUCK TO LEAN INTO THE CAB OF THE TRUCK. PICTURES INCLUDED IN THIS POST ARE OF THE BED LEANING INTO THE CAN, AND ONE PICTURE AT THE WORST VISIBLE ANGLE OF THE CRACK ON EACH SIDE OF THE VEHICLE'S FRAME.

I OWN A 2007 CHEVY COLORADO. I AM VERY CAREFUL WHEN IT COMES TO MY VEHICLES MAINTENANCE AND TAKE ALL PRECAUTIONS. WHEN IT COMES DOWN TO A SIMPLE ROUTINE SUCH AS TIRE ROTATION, AS MANY AMERICANS WITH THE KNOW HOW DO, I PERFORMED THIS MYSELF. WITH A FOUR WAY AND A TORSION BAR SET AT THE FACTORY 100 LB SETTING. BEFORE I EVEN USED THE TORSION BAR, THE WHEEL STUD HAD BROKEN WITH NO MORE THAN 30LBS OF PRESSURE. I TOOK MY VEHICLE TO A LOCAL GM DEALER AND WAS TOLD IT IS NOT COVERED UNDER MY WARRANTY. I ARGUED THAT REGARDLESS OF WHO HAD WORKED ON IT, THE STUD STILL WOULD HAVE BROKE. SO NOW I AM DRIVING AROUND WITH A MISSING STUD AND I AM CONCERNED ABOUT THE SAFETY OF MY VEHICLE. I BELIEVE THAT THIS IS A POORLY PRODUCED PART AND SHOULD BE REPLACED BY MY FACTORY WARRANTY. *TR

I AM THE OWNER OF A 2007 CHEVROLET COLORADO TRUCK. SEVERAL TIMES WHEN APPLYING THE BRAKE, MY FOOT HAS ALSO PRESSED DOWN ON THE ACCELERATOR. (PRESSING BRAKE AND GAS PEDDLE AT THE SAME TIME). THEY ARE LOCATED TOO CLOSE TO EACH OTHER AND PRESENT A SERIOUS SAFETY POTENTIAL. I HAVE EXPERIENCED THIS PROBLEM MANY TIMES SINCE I OWNED THIS VEHICLE, BUT JUST RECENTLY, HAVE HIT A PARKED CAR IN FRONT OF ME WHEN I THOUGHT I WAS APPLYING THE BRAKE. WOULD LIKE YOU TO LOOK INTO THIS MATTER AND I FEEL GM IS RESPONSIBLE FOR A POORLY DESIGNED PRODUCT THAT NEEDS IMMEDIATE CORRECTION AND HAS RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE DAMAGE TO MY TRUCK. I HAVE HEARD OTHER OWNERS OF THIS TRUCK HAVE EXPERIENCED THIS SAME PROBLEM. *TR
