[Jordan18]

That looks very good can you find out what brand the product that was used thanks

They are a local Canadian brand it seems.

Had it done in a shop that applies it as an undercoat but primarily it's a linex type bed coating.

Hey everyone first time posting but been reading alot on here and i took my 2014 silverado to dealer and like many they never heard of this issue but i took copy of tsb and the number so they are going to get my truck and strip the frame and redo it all they said be about a week to do it. Just wanted to let everyone know.

Jumping on the bandwagon here. I have a 2014 Sierra SLT Crew Cab that also has some terrible rust. Waiting for 4 months to get in to my dealer to have the TSB work performed. Pics in my gallery. This is unacceptable. Any class-action lawsuits out there? Emails to Mary Barra? or Jeff Luke the lead engineer on these trucks. What a joke. I was torn between Ford and GM. Should have went Ford.

 

For those that have had the repairs done - are you happy with it? any further rusting?

I purchased a certified 2014 Sierra CCSB about 2 months ago and discovered flaking-off frame coating with extensive frame rust the next day. My dealer worked with me and helped me fully understand what a repair per the tsb would look like and also gave me an option to get into a new truck. I am now in a new 2015 truck that has a much thicker and more durable looking frame coating.

Had mine done. Two months later it all peeled off of the welds on the frame, it is rusting by the rear wheels and all the cross member holes are rusting. It is back at the dealer hopefully getting fixed again.

Any of you guys use Fluid Film for rust prevention? It's big in the farming industry for protecting tractor parts. I believe the primary ingredient is lanolin. I just picked up a brand new Silverado LTZ tonight and plan on using Fluid Film to help protect my frame. It worked great on my Jeep. Can be found on Amazon.

I unfortunately didn't learn about fluid film til the truck was a year or 2 old. However, I've done the wife's Sorento and mom's lacrosse since new and both still look spotless on the bottom.

Definitely won't hurt to start using it. It's supposed to stop rust from spreading as well as prevent it. It worked wonders on 1992 craftsman lawn mower I bought, as well as kept my jeep looking pretty good for the three years I had it. I'll be spraying the frame on my new Silverado once or month or so.

14-day old truck is in now for the tsb. I'll let everyone know how it goes. Went in Monday morning, and I was told to expect 4-5 day turn-around. This is actually the 4th or 5th one they've done and they have found that a professional body shop will do the best job. Makes sense. We shall see.

I've been using Fluid Film on my vehicles for a few years now. I've sprayed the frame of my 2014 a few times now. Works great. It's very popular with the Tacoma guys and if it works on a Tacoma it'll work on any vehicle lol.

Here's pics of my tsb fix on my 2015 Sierra. I thought the job was fair....missed a few spots. You can see where the lift was how it took the coating off...they should have touched that ip. It did show me primer, though, which I was glad to see. Now well see how long it lasts. Saw a Ford today and made me remorseful that I didn't buy one.
