What 2001 Chevrolet S Pickup owners say
Most recent owner complaints, unedited.
Broken tail gate cables.
Tailgate straps broke and tailgate fell off and slid down the road.there has been recalls on the full size truck tailgate straps but not on my 2001 s-10. It makes my 2001 chevrolet look nice with a dented and scratched tailgate. I think my next new truck will be a dodge.
General motors is conducting a recall on 2000-2004 model year full sized pickup trucks because of corrosion and failure of galvanized steel tailgate cables.he same failure has occurred on the tailgate cables of my compact chrevrolet s-10 pickup which is not covered by the recall. There was no warning or indication of this failure before it occurred. Hevrolet customer assistance advised me to get a receipt for repairs, but that they are not including the s-10 model in this recall. The failure occurred while I was standing on the truck tailgate and both cables failed at the same instant causing me to fall to the ground. No injuries occurred as a result of this equipment failure. I still have the old failed parts.
The wipers don't always work, I had the same problem on 2 other gm products, both of those have been recalled. No recall on this one.
Brake failure due to engine stalling at low speed.
