Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: The upper weld on the top hinge of the drivers side door hinge has cracked, resulting in door not latching properly. the drivers side door opens while driving the vehicle. many other chevrolet and gmc pickup truck owners have voiced the same concerns to me on this safety-related issue. the door is too heavy for this type of hinge and they all crack at the weld joint where the hinge is welded to the door. this results in the door not being able to latch properly. *ak |
