Consumer Description

LOADING SMALL ATV IN BACK OF 2000 CHEVROLET S10 ZR2 AND BOTH CABLES BROKE, CAUSING ATV TO COME CRASHING DOWN ON THE TAILGATE AND TO THE GROUND. RECEIVED MINOR SCRAPES TRYING TO STOP IT, BUT IT DID EXTENSIVE DAMAGE TO THE TAILGATE IN THE PROCESS. CHECKED PRICE OF NEW CABLES AND COST TO REPLACE AND IT WAS RIDICULOUS!! DEALER SAYS THEY HAVE SEEN MANY OTHERS LIKE THIS, BUT GM WILL NOT WARRANTY. I HAVE ALSO HAD MY THIRD DOOR HANDLE BREAK NUMEROUS TIMES AND THEY WON'T REPLACE. AGAIN THE DEALER SAYS IT'S A COMMON PROBLEM. VERY POOR CUSTOMER SERVICE IN MY OPINION. WOULD LIKE COMPENSATION FOR THE FAULTY CABLES AND THE DAMAGE THEY CAUSED.*AK
