I'd be scared of putting it on my new truck's plastic bumper,

Don't worry, it'll do that just sitting in the sun....(c;

I inherited my father's Chevy Caprice Classic land yacht when he
died. After TWO of the electric windows just dropped suddenly
into the door, my mechanic handed me this melted piece of plastic
crap. "There's your problem. It happens a lot to GM windows."

I emailed GM just to see what the party line was. Their answer?

"Park the car in the SHADE!

Case closed......car sold.....the Asians have nothing to worry
about from "American competition".

The electrical wiring chafed against some ugly unfinished metal
in the front passenger door, blowing the 30A self-resetting
breaker AFTER melting the HOOKUP WIRE the whole damned car is
wired with....wrapped in cheap plastic electrical tape! Having
seen the mechanic pull the door apart, I fix that myself, using
the same cheap electrical tape GM thinks is wonderful....(c;

I don't own a GM product and never will. I owned a Chevy truck once
and hated it, never have been a GM guy. Then against my better
judgement and because she got a good deal, my sister in law got a
Pontiac Montana van, with 20,000 miles on it. I know why the person
that bought it new got rid of it, it was a pure piece of crap! Little
nit picking things all of the time, like the LCD readout on the stereo
would screw up, the adjuster for the serpentine belt just fell off one
day, the sensor for the power side door would go wacky and the door
would either not close, not open, or do both about half way for a few
minutes, and on and on!

On the other hand, I loved my pickup and am wishing I'd kept it. After 12
years and 130K miles (or thereabouts), it ran like a champ.

I got my nephew to agree that I get first dibs on it if he ever decides to
sell or trade it in.

Same with my Jeep, only getting close to three times the mileage of
your truck! When someone comments on my new truck, I still tell them I
miss driving the Jeep sometimes!
