Hi Hiran,
I don't need to convince everybody in the world. If you don't beleive the problem of rust, you may check with Mr.Akshay Pandit of GM or Mr.Krishnan, the Service Manager in charge for Chevy at Sundaram Motors, who has replaced all the door panels at Free of Cost(I have given the car ref no in this trail). Do you think that GMI will do it just for fun? If you are lucky enough not to have this problem in your SRV, feel happy about it and enjoy yourself.

Is it a joke ? GM and build quality?. The cars just fall apart. Do not ever fall for a GM car

Mr Kannnan,
you seem to be trying to bring the Chevy image down.
I do not think u r a genuine owner of an SRV.
if you have one....and if the case is true....plz do forward your images.
let me see them
regarding rust and stuff.....Chevy cars do not rust even in coastal areas....
did u buy a new one or used one???
We have an SRV too.....and m porud of it sbuild quality... no other manufacturer can come anywhere CLOSE to it
TRUST ME!

the opel astra of 1998 (petrol) with me for the last 10years +, is just so fantastic that i hate to change it even as it grows old. yes service of late is becoming painful. each time you visit garage even like sundaram motors bangalore, you get new problems due to bad handling and fitting. private garages are far superior in thier work

Hi Omkarsingh, The photographs of Rusted Body Panels are with GM's Chennai Dealer M/s Sundaram Motors. You can refer the Vehicle No. 4001. Let me also check our archives.
