while driving my son saw smoke coming from the rear window defogger, I pulled over and saw melted pieces of plastic, I contacted my dealer when I saw a recall online, my dealer said even though your vehicle is the same year and model and the exact same condition occurred, your vehicle is not listed under the recall. I don't understand why this vehicle is not under the recall when the exact condition occurred. GM was unable to assist with and complete the repair under the recall

On 9/11/2017 i purchased this 2017 Chevy Silverado 1500 Custom double cab truck. I owned it for over 7 years. (46000 miles) And garage kept since day 1. I noticed a lot of rust on frame and Spair tire a lot . Also the paint on the body is chipping a lot. I did not have any problems with the lifter issue yet. But i feel as soon as it goes out of warranty I will have to deal with rebuilding my engine. GM knows of this problem and not doing anything about it. It would be nice if this engine could be replaced with none of the AFM parts and at no cost to me.

I was towing my travel trailer and the brakes failed,I totaled the camper in front of me.the notification letter from gm said even in the hard pedal situation the brakes are still in safety specs, not with a 7,000 lb trailer behind the truck.I feel gm should cover the costs of damage and update the latest notification letter to include letting the people who tow know they aren't going to stop in time. Also gm pulled the data from my truck, the airbags did not deploy, and didn't inspect the vacuum pump or the hood, bumper, grill or fenders all were thrown away. The investigator that pulled the data said it was incomplete yet gm says it's not their problem there were no codes present at the time of the accident.
