Consumer Description

BOTH MY TAILGATE CABLES SNAPPED AT THE SAME TIME ON MY 2002 CHEVY AVALANCHE ON A BOY SCOUT CAMP OUT. TWO OF THE FATHERS (ABOUT 400 LBS) WERE SITTING ON THE TAILGATE WHEN THEY BOTH SNAPPED. LUCKY THAT THEY LANDED ON THEIR FEET AND DID NOT GET HURT. BOTH LOOK LIKE THEY ARE BLACK AND CORRODED FROM THE INSIDE. SNAPPED AT THE SAME PLACE ON BOTH CABLES. *LA
