All frame supports a rotted need them welded. GMC does not stand behind their products. How come Toyota had to replace their frames but GM don't have to.

While trying to sell my vehicle, an auto service facility discovered serious frame corrosion which could prove to be a safety issue. The corrosion seems excessive and suggests design and/or material deficiencies. I have had to replace all brake lines and have had transmission shift linkage failure, all due to rust. Also, excessive body rust in the lower rocker panels has occurred, more of a cosmetic problem, but indicative of the pervasive rust problem that exists.

My 2000 GMC Sierra's frame is extremely rusted. Parts of the frame have rusted completely through. All the brakes lines have been replaced due to rust as have many other brake parts. I purchased the truck used but previous owner stated he replaced the brake lines due to a low speed accident.
