Consumer Description

ONE OF THE CABLES THAT SUPPORT THE OPEN TAILGATE ON MY 2002 CHEVY S-10 FAILED AND BROKE WHEN OPENING THE TAILGATE. I HAVE NOT YET REPLACED THIS PART BECAUSE I HAVE SEEN THAT THE PART HAS BEEN RECALLED IN OTHER CHEVY TRUCKS. WHY IS THIS TRUCK MODEL NOT INCLUDED IN THE PAST RECALLS? *NM
