Consumer Description

ON MY 2001 S10, ONE TAILGATE SUPPORT CABLE BROKE WHEN LOWERING THE TAILGATE. I HAVE SEEN A RECALL ON THESE CABLES ON THE FULL SIZE TRUCKS, BUT NOT THE S SERIES TRUCKS, YET THE CABLES ARE THE SAME CONSTRUCTION AND SEEM TO HAVE THE SAME WIDESPREAD BREAKAGE PROBLEM. GM REFUSES TO WARRANT THESE CABLES OR INCLUDE THEM IN THE RECALL.*AK
