1998 CHEVROLET S10 Complaints

PROBLEM WITH LEFT FRONT WHEEL WOULD LOCK UP WHENEVER BRAKES ARE APPLIED IN WET ROAD CONDITIONS. DEALER/MANUFACTURER HAVE BEEN CONTACTED. *AK

WHEN IT RAINS ONLY THE LEFT BRAKE WORKS AND IT THROWS THE TRUCK TO THE LEFT OFF THE ROAD. THE G.M. CORP LIED AND SAID THERE WAS NO PROBLEMS, BUT THE BRAKE PROBLEM STILL EXSIT. G.M. REFUSED TO GIVE ME A REPORT OF THERE FINDINGS, THEY SAID THAT IT WAS G.M. PROPERTY, AND THEY DID NOT WORK ON IT THEY JUST INSPECTED IT, BUT AFFTER HAVEING ANOTHER MACHANIC TAKE A LOOK AT IT HE FOUND WHERE G.M. HAD WORKED ON IT. IT IS WORSE NOW THEN IT WAS. I HAVE BEEN LIED TO BY THE DEALERSHIP AND G.M. ON MORE THAN ONE OCCATION. THE PROBLEM STILL EXSIT AND IS GETTING WORSE EVERY DAY.

MY POWER STEERING SYSTEM HAS ALWAYS MADE A NOISE WHEN I MAKE LEFT OR RIGHT HAND TURNS. I HAVE REPORTED IT TO THE DEALERSHIP ON TWO OCCASIONS, BUT THEY NEVER FOUND ANYTHIN WRONG WITH IT, AND NOW IT IS NOT UNDER WARRANTY. THEY SAID THAT THEY COULDN'T DUPLICATE IT BUT IT HAPPENS EVERY TIME IT IS DRIVEN, SO I DON'T SEE HOW THEY COULD'VE MISSED IT. ALSO, THE RECLINER LEVER ON THE DRIVER SIDE SEAT BROKE OFF AT THE METAL AFTER THE WARRANTY HAD ALREADY EXPIRED SO I GUESS I'M OUT OF LUCK WITH THAT. *AK
