CHEVROLET S-10 1997 car safety problem was reported on June 04, 2008.CHEVROLET S-10 1997, manufactured by GENERAL MOTORS CORP. had a problem with STRUCTURE:BODY . THIS IS IN REGARDS TO A 1997 CHEVROLET S-10 PICKUP. IT'S A 4 CYLINDER, 2 WHEEL DRIVE. THE LEFT TAILGATE STRAP BROKE. THE STRAP IS CLEARLY RUSTED THROUGHOUT WHICH CAUSED IT TO SNAP. I NOTICED THAT THERE IS A RECALL ON THIS TYPE OF STRAP ON A GMC TRUCK. THIS IS NOT A PART FOR THE AVERAGE PERSON TO REPLACE SINCE IT REQUIRES SOME DISMANTLING OF THE TAILGATE. MY CHEVROLET DEALER GAVE ME AN ESTIMATE OF $90 TO REPLACE THE LEFT SIDE. IT WOULD PROBABLY BE WISE TO REPLACE BOTH OF THEM. IS CHEVROLET AWARE OF THIS IN THEIR TRUCKS AND IF SO ARE THEY CURRENTLY LOOKING AT A RECALL FOR THIS DEFECTIVE PART? I WOULD APPRECIATE ANY INFORMATION THAT YOU CAN PROVIDE. *TR.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 77000 miles. Chevrolet S-10 1997 problem was reported in CHEEKTOWAGA, NY.
