2001 CHEVROLET S10 Complaints

The door latch, that holds your door shut.The wells on them broke and the passenger door came open while going down the road.Big concern had to get it rewelded

I'm having a problem with I believe it's the fuel sensor my truck gets up to a certain temperature and it just dies and it's not just my truck it's in a lot of the newer model Colorado's as well I have a friend who's having the same exact problem as I am when it gets up past 95 degrees, the truck just all of a sudden stops in the engine turns off, and you have to try and steer your truck without any power steering, the reason I am filing this is if this happens in the middle of the road it could possibly cause an accident and that would be no good and it only happens when it is hot outside in the winter time or when it's cold I have no issues whatsoever

I never received Safety Recall# 06020 Galvanized Defective Tailgate Cables that snap/break due to corrosion inside the cable causing the tailgate to fall down while opened. Both my cables have been torn/broken caused by the rust thru for quit some time. My son told me recently, that he had received the Recall Notice a number of years ago and the Chevy Dealer replaced his cables; his S-10 cables are good/solid no problems. I am meticulous with records and surely would have told the Dealer and had them replaced during the recall period. What should I do as I never received the Recall Notice at issue?

TRUCK HAS ABS LIGHTS ON WHEN DRIVING AT LOWER SPEEDS AS SOON AS THE FLUIDS ARE NOT COLD THE CHECK GUSHES LIGHT COMES ON AND THE OIL PRESSURE GAUGE NEEDLE DROPS UNTIL THE THROTTLE IS AGAIN DEPRESSED... ALSO ABS IN REAR SHAKES WHOLE TRUCK WHEN GOING BELOW 50MPH AND THEN CONTINUES UP TO 80MPH BEFORE SUBSIDING. THE TRUCK HAS SERIOUS STEERING ISSUES CONSTANT LEAKS CAUSED I'M SURE MY RACK AND PINION ARE WORN DOWN AS WELL AS NOW MY TIRES AND SUPENSION I HAVE SO MANY PROBLEMS LIKE THE INTERIOR IS CRUMBLING TO PIECES THE BODY HAS GIANT HOLES FROM IMPROPER PAINTING OPTIONS ON THIS MODEL I HAVE OVER SIZED TIRE WELLS THAT ARE RUSTED COMPLETELY OUT IT MAKE YOUR COMPANY LOOK SILLY FOR NOT MAKING THESE VEHICLES BETTER WHEN THEY LAST PEOPLE KEEP BUYING THEM AGAIN AND AGAIN!

MY BRAKES DO NOT ALWAYS WORK; I OFTEN HAVE TO PUMP THE BRAKES UP JUST TO BE ABLE TO GET THEM TO APPLY. IT IS VERY SCARY. I CAN PUT MY FOOT ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR, AND THE TRUCK WILL BARELY SLOW DOWN. I FEEL I WILL LIKELY REAR-END SOMEBODY OR ROLL INTO A BUSY INTERSECTION BECAUSE THE BRAKES WILL NOT WORK.

THE EMERGENCY BRAKE IS MISSING THE TEETH FOR HOLDING THE BRAKE IN PLACE. ALSO THE ABS LIGHT IS ALWAYS ON AND THEY SAY IT IS THE MASTER THAT NEEDS REPLACEMENT AT OVER $1,200. THIS IS ONLY A DANGER IF USING THE CURSOR CONTROL ON WET PAVEMENT WHICH I NEVER USE DUE TO THE ABS NOT WORKING.
