Description of the problem | 2021 chevrolet suburban, 79 miles on odometer when driven off lot on 02/22/21. Vehicle frame and suspension parts, as well as, control, steering, and powertrain parts have significant corrosion occurring. Vehicle was manufactured and inspected 11/2020. Vehicle was visually inspected by owner. Currently in process of trying to remedy with gm. Corrosion so early in vehicle life will undoubtedly lead to failure. I reside in tacoma, washington. Vehicle was purchased in puyallup, washington. More photos available upon request. There are several more areas of corrosion than photo upload allowed for. Gm claims 2021 models have a new process when manufacturing and treating metal. It appears to have failed. The climate here is mild, and road salt is not used in the area. |
