Most Recent Complaints
I TURNED OFF MY 2000 CHEVY S10 TRUCK AND TOOK OUT THE KEY AND IT STARTED DINGING, LIKE THE KEY IS IN AND THE DOOR IS OPEN. THEN IT STARTED TRYING TO START ITSELF WITH NO KEY IN THE IGNITION AND PROCEEDED TO DO THIS FOR A FEW MINUTES, EVENTUALLY STOPPING. UNDER THE HOOD, THE WIRING HARNESS WAS ON FIRE. *TR
2000 CHEVROLET S-10 PICK-UP TAILGATE CABLE FAILED, W VEHICLE ABOUT 4 YEARS OLD, ONE SIDE ONLY, BROKE IN HALF, NO INJURIES OR DAMAGE TO VEHICLE PARTS, I REPLACED $40 CABLE AND LATCH ASSEMBLY. *NM
IN LATE SPRING OF THIS YEAR, I EXPERIENCED A FAILURE OF MY LEFT TAILGATE CABLE DURING THE LOADING OF A MODERATE LOAD OF ABOUT 300 LBS. THANK GOD NOBODY WAS HURT. I WENT TO A COUPLE DEALERS AROUND TO FIND OUT ABOUT A REPLACEMENT. I'M AWARE OF THE RECALL FOR THE C/K TAILGATE CABLE SO INQUIRED ABOUT THAT FOR MY VEHICLE. WAS TOLD THERE WAS NONE AND PROBABLY WON'T BE DUE TO LOW COMPLAINT VOLUME. I WAS TOLD THAT THIS FAILURE IS NORMAL IN SUCH A SHORT TIME DUE TO SALT USE ON THE ROADS HERE. I DON'T BUY THAT; I BELIEVE THEY SHOULD LAST MUCH LONGER. GM'S EXPLANATION OF WHY THEY AREN'T RECALLED (LOWER TAILGATE WEIGHT,ETC) DOESN'T JIVE CONSIDERING THE LOW LOAD THAT BROKE THIS CABLE THOUGH THEY ADMIT THE MATERIAL IS DEFECTIVE (SAME AS C/K MATERIAL). I'M EXPECTING THE OTHER ONE TO GO ANY TIME. THE PART IS AVAILABLE BUT I SHOULDN'T HAVE TO GET THE LATCH TOO, WHICH IS FINE ON MINE.*JB
TAILGATE FAILURE ON 2000 CHEVROLET, S10. THEY BROKE A YEAR AGO. *AK
TAILGATE STRAPS SIMULTANEOUSLY BROKE ON 2000 CHEVROLET S-10 / 4WD. THIS HAPPENED APPROX. 2 1/2 YEARS AGO. I WAS HAND-LOADING A PUSH MOWER INTO THE BED OF THE TRUCK, WITH ONE KNEE ON THE TAILGATE SO THAT I COULD SHOVE THE MOWER FARTHER UP INTO THE BED. THE STRAPS BROKE AND DROPPED ME A FEW INCHES, AND CAUSING MY KNEE AND LEG TO SLIP OFF THE GATE. I ALMOST SMACKED MY FACE INTO THE BED, BUT CAUGHT MYSELF IN TIME.*AK
