Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: I have a 1997 s-10 chev. truck. at a party a friend and i were sitting on the tail-gate of the truck. surprisingly the cables supporting the gate had broken. i called on local chev. dealer and ask if they felt any responsibility. they ask me if i had received a letter regarding tailgate problems. i reported that i had not. they said then they had no responsility for this incident which damaged the tailgate to tune of over $500. the fact that they ask if i received a letter from chev. that there have been some problems with the gate supports. it is my contention that the failure of the gate supports caused damage to my vehicle that i could not have prevented. i feel chev. has responsibility for a failure of their parts causing damage to my vehicle. *ak |
