Consumer Description

ON MY 2003 CHEV S10, THE PINS AND BUSHINGS ON THE DRIVERS DOOR HINGE WORE OUT WITH ONLY ABOUT 30,000 MILES ON THE VEHICLE. THE DOOR WOULD SAG AND BECAME DIFFICULT TO CLOSE. I CURRENTLY HAVE AN APPOINTMENT TO REPLACE THE PINS AND BUSHINGS AT A COST OF ABOUT $150.00 (W/TAX). UPON SPEAKING TO OTHER LATE MODEL (SINCE 2000) GM PRODUCT OWNERS AND REPAIRMEN AT GM DEALERSHIPS, IT IS EVIDENTIALLY COMMON FOR THESE PINS AND BUSHINGS TO WEAR OUT. I FEEL DOORS SAGGING AND BEING DIFFICULT TO CLOSE COULD POTENTIALLY BE A SAFETY PROBLEM. *NM
