Passenger side rear wheel does not line up with front wheel. Passenger side rear wheel is inward approximately 1 to 2 inches. Drivers side rear wheel line up perfectly with the front drivers side wheel looking from front to back and vice versa. I was informed that this problem could be corrected by installing an adjustable panhard bar if I could find one to fit.

What 1995 Chevrolet S10 owners say
Most recent owner complaints, unedited.
Consumer states while traveling at 40 MPH the front end of vehicle dropped on the right hand side. Vehicle was towed to a mechanic, mechanic states that the upper ball joint had broken. Consumer feels this is very unsafe. Please provide any further information.
I have three friends that also have late model s-10 vehicles, all of which have had problems with the ball joints. I grease my truck myself(so I know it gets done) every 1500 miles. I was informed by gateway chevy, that all 4 ball joints are bad. After only 48000 miles, I was informed that it just weak parts and they will do nothing about it. Well here we are three days later and a friend of mine, doug kuznia, also of fargo, his 1996 s-10 had it's upper ball joint fail and the front wheel buckled over while driving. I feel that this is a safety hazard and they should install better parts. I feel that 48000 miles is not a high mileage vehicle and I should not have to worry about my wheels falling off because general motors doesn't want to install quality parts. If this has been ay help at all, please contact me because all of my friends would also like to respond with complaints. Thank you collin gnoinsky
