Consumer Description

THE EXTENDED CUB 3RD DOOR HANDLES CONTINUES TO BREAK EVERY 6 MONTHS. IT IS MADE OF PLASTIC. I PURCHASED THE 1998 S10 IN MARCH, 04, IN JULY THE HANDLE BROKE. THIS SAME NEW HANDLE BROKE WAS REPLACED IN DECEMBER, 04. FINALLY, THE 2 NEW HANDLE BROKE IN AUGUST, 05. THE BREAK IS ALWAYS IN THE SAME AREA. THE DEALER HAS COMMENTED THAT HE HAS NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS TO HIM FOR THIS PART, BUT TO CHEV HAS MADE NO EFFORT TO RECALL OR ASSIST IN ANY WAY. CAN I HAVE YOUR REVIEW AND ASSISTANCE? *NM
