FYI: 2011(+/-) Silverado washer fluid reservoir

Took the truck a bit more off-road than usual. When all was said and done, she held together quite well. One design flaw only realized through this trip was the washer fluid reservoir. They built the thing into the structure. Under stress (such as actual off-roading), the tank comes apart at the mount points and seams. I ended up with quite a leak. Got the tank replaced under warranty at the dealer. Apparently there is a newer tank design which hopefully eliminates the issue.

Hope you don't have the same problem, but if you're nearing your warranty expiration, might be time for an upgraded tank before it's too late!
