Consumer Description

WHILE UNLOADING PIECES OF A CAST IRON TUB, AS I SLID THE TUB ONTO THE TAIL GATE OF MY 2000 S10, ONE OF THE TAIL GATE CABLES FAILED. THE TAIL GATE MOVED SLIGHTLY BUT THE OTHER CABLE WAS ABLE TO TAKE UP THE REST OF THE WEIGHT. THE CABLE APPEARED TO BE VERY RUSTY INSIDE. THIS APPEARS TO BE SIMILAR TO AN ISSUE REMEDIED ON THE LARGER TRUCKS BUT NOT DEALT WITH ON THE SMALLER SIZE TRUCKS. (THE DAY LISTED BELOW IS AN ESTIMATE.) *JB
