I HAVE A 2002 CHEVROLET S10 ZR2. IT HAS HAD MANY PROBLEMS IN THE FRONT END, IT WAS EVENTUALLY DISCOVERED TO HAVE NUMEROUS CRACKS AND BROKEN WELDS, MOSTLY ON THE RIGHT SIDE. AT THIS POINT GM HAS OFFERED A 70/30 SPLIT ON REPAIRS, WHICH WE RELUCTANTLY AGREED TO BECAUSE WE NEEDED THE VEHICLE REPAIRED. NOW THAT THE FRAME HAS BEEN HAPHAZARDLY REPAIRED BY A DIFFERENT DEALER, BECAUSE THE DEALER THAT WE PURCHASED IT FROM REFUSED TO LOOK AT IT, WE FEEL THAT IT IS STILL A SAFETY HAZARD AND WE ARE TRYING TO GET IT REPAIRED CORRECTLY. WE WANT PROPER REPAIRS FOR OUR VEHICLE, BUT ,TO ALSO ALERT OTHERS THAT THERE MAY BE PROBLEMS WITH THE ZR2 FRAMES. THE ORIGINAL FRAME IS STILL IN THE POSSESSION OF TURNPIKE CHEVROLET IN NITRO, WV. *JB

THE FRAME IS BENT. THE VEHICLE HAS A PROBLEM WITH THE ALIGNMENT A WEEK AFTER BEING REPAIRED. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN TO THE DEALER SEVERAL TIMES FOR THIS PROBLEM. CHEVROLET, S10, BLAZER EXTREME 2002. *AK

CONSUMER HAS BROUGHT VEHICLE BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP THREE TIMES FOR A CREAKING NOISE HEARD IN THE FRONT END. ALSO, CONSUMER COMPLAINED THAT WHEN TAKING FOOT OFF THROTTLE VEHICLE WILL NOT SLOW DOWN FOR A PERIOD OF TIME. WHEN DRIVING WITH THE AIR CONDITIONER ON, VEHICLE WILL NOT SLOW DOWN. VEHICLE OVERRUNS THE CRUISE CONTROL FROM 3 TO 6 MILES PER HOUR. *JG *JB *NLM. *AK

CONSUMER STATES WHEN DRIVING ABOVE 50 MPH THE TRUCK SHAKES VIOLENTLY. TOOK TO CHEVROLET AND THEY STATED THIS CONDITION IS NORMAL. NLM *TT

NOTICED SEVERAL DAYS AFTER PURCHASE TRUCK LEANING 1.5 INCHES ON DRIVERS SIDE, FRONT AND REAR. CONTACTED DEALER, THEY INSTRUCTED TO BRING IN AFTER 1500 MILES. BROUGHT IN AT 2600 MILES. AFTER 1.5 MONTHS, DEALER REPAIR WAS TO PUT STRONGER SPRINGS ON LEFT FRONT, LEFT REAR, ARCH REAR SPRINGS AND FABRICATE SHIMS (2) WHICH WERE PLACED BETWEEN FRAME AND BODY. GM CALLS THIS FIXED. I AM NOT SATISFIED, AND CONCERNED ABOUT VEHICLE HANDLING AND SAFETY POSSIBLY COMPRIMISED.*AK
