problem #1

Nov 272004

S-10 Pickup 6-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 51,000 miles
Hauling my 1935 Chevrolet engine block and unloading it from my 2001 S-10 pickup. The tailgate cables on both side separated dropping the gate to the rear bmper and in the process tipped the engine block into my lap bruising both of my legs badly. My Chevrolet dealer wouldnot replace them without full charge for labor & parts in spite of the same (or similar) cables on the big trucks. I have not replaced them as of yet as I still think they should have been recalled.
