S-10 Pickup LS

  • Automatic transmission
  • 49,000 miles

Why is a door handle breaking??? My 3rd door latch is broken. I can't believed that it costs $150 dollars to repair, I have replaced this twice already. It should be a recall and made out of something other than plastic!!

It's a door handle! Why is a door handle breaking??? And it broke again about 5 months later but they fixed it for free. The reason I bought the truck was easy access to the back. Now I can't wait to get rid of it.

It seems I'm not the only one with this damn 3rd door problem. Can you believe that it costs 125 dollars to repair. Chevy sucks. It should be a recall!

S-10 Pickup V$

Third door handle.

I have had three handles replaced, two were under warranty, the last one cost me 132 dollars at the Chevrolet dealer. This should be a recall item. That is a child seat and if you can't get at the child if the were choking. I intend to send a letter to DOT
