Complaint Summary
STRUCTURE:BODY:TAILGATE:HINGE AND ATTACHMENTS
Owner Narrative
I HAVE A 2002 CHEVROLET S-10 PICKUP. THE CABLE THAT ATTACHES THE TAILGATE TO THE TRUCK HAS CORRODED AWAY. THIS RESULTS IN THE TAILGATE FALLING FROM HORIZONTAL POSITION AND POSSIBLE FALLING OFF. A RECALL FOR THIS SAME ISSUE HAS BEEN ISSUED FOR THE GM SILVERADO PICKUP. THE SAME RECALL SHOULD APPLY TO THE S-10, AS IT IS THE SAME DEFECT AS IN THE SILVERADO. *JB
