problem #1

Jan 312002

Sonoma 4-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 50,000 miles
Tailgate cables rusted, and broke. Several other GMC pick ups have the same problem, and was under recall. I have the same problem, why not a recall item. This is potential safety issue when hauling items with tailgate down.
