I WOULD THINK ALL CABLES THAT WERE MANUFACTURED WITH GALVANIZED STEEL HAVE A PROBLEM WITH CORRODING BECAUSE OF MOISTURE. GM EVEN STATES IN THEIR RECALL QUESTION/ANSWER SECTION THAT \"MOISTURE AND ENVIRONMENTAL CONTAMINANTS MAY ENTER BETWEEN THE METAL STRANDS OF THE CABLE AT EITHER END OF THE CABLE AND IN SOME CASES, THE BLACK PLASTIC SHEATHING MAY BECOME CRACKED OR TORN DURING NORMAL USAGE CREATING A PATH FOR MOISTURE ENTRY. MOISTURE MAY COLLECT AND CONCENTRATE NEAR THE CENTER OF THE CABLE DURING NORMAL USAGE OF THE TAILGATE, THE CABLE IS FLEXED AT THE MIDPOINT. REPEATED FLEXING, PLUS CORROSION CAUSED BY THE MOISTURE AND CONTAMINANTS, MAY WEAKEN THE METAL STRANDS, AND THEY CAN EVENTUALLY SEVER UNDER LOAD.\" THE FACT IS, THE CABLES ARE BREAKING DUE TO THE GALVANIZED STEEL CORRODING. IT SEEMS LIKE GM IS TRYING TO GET BY WITH REPLACING AS FEW OF THE POORLY DESIGNED CABLES AS THE NHTSA WILL LET THEM GET BY WITH. IF YOU WOULD LIKE DIGITAL PHOTOS OF MY BROKEN/CORRODED CABLES, PLEASE LET ME KNOW. I WOULD APPRECIATE ANY ASSISTANCE YOU CAN PROVIDE WITH GETTING MY CABLES REPLACED.

THE ODOMETER READING WAS APPROXIMATELY 48,000 MILES WHEN THIS PROBLEM FIRST OCCURRED.    IN SEPTEMBER 2003 THE GAUGE WOULD ONLY REGISTER FULL.  AT THIS TIME I HAD THE TRUCK INSPECTED BY TWO INDEPENDENT GARAGES.  THEY STATED THAT THEY HAD SEEN A NUMBER OF GMC'S WITH THE SAME PROBLEM.  IT SEEMED THAT THE 1999-2001 MODELS HAD A DEFECTIVE PART.  WHEN I TOOK THE TRUCK TO THE DEALERSHIP IN SEPTEMBER 2003 I WAS TOLD THAT THE FUEL TANK WOULD HAVE TO BE REMOVED IN ORDER TO REPLACE THE PART.  I WAS THEN TOLD THAT THE COST OF THIS REPAIR WOULD BE $650.00, INCLUDING PARTS (THE PART COST WAS $395.83).  I WAS INFORMED THAT BECAUSE THE MILEAGE ON THE TRUCK WAS APPROXIMATELY 64,000 MILES, THE WARRANTY DID NOT COVER THE COST OF THIS REPAIR.  I STATED THAT THE MILEAGE SHOULD NOT BE A FACTOR FOR A FUEL GAUGE.    I DID NOT EXPECT GM TO TAKE FULL RESPONSIBILITY; HOWEVER, I FEEL THAT SOME CONSIDERATION SHOULD BE GIVEN TOWARD THE COST OF THIS PART.  I HAVE CONTACTED THE GM CONSUMER DEPARTMENT HOWEVER NO RELIEF HAS BEEN OFFERED TOWARD THIS REPAIR/PART.    I DO NOT FEEL THAT I SHOULD BE HELD FULLY RESPONSIBLE FOR A DEFECTIVE PART.    *LA","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2000","productMake":"GMC","productModel":"SIERRA","manufacturer":"General Motors, LLC"}]},{"odiNumber":10044901,"manufacturer":"General Motors, LLC","crash":false,"fire":false,"numberOfInjuries":0,"numberOfDeaths":0,"dateOfIncident":"10/01/2003","dateComplaintFiled":"12/10/2003","vin":"1GTEK19T9YE","components":"STRUCTURE","summary":"THE TAILGATE CABLES RUSTED THROUGH AND BROKE, CAUSING THE TAILGATE TO DETACH FROM THE VEHICLE.   *AK   THE TAILGATE WAS BEING LOWERED WHEN THE CABLES UNEXPECTEDLY SNAPPED AND RESTED ON THE BUMPER.
