1 Door Latch problem of the 1998 Chevrolet K1500

Failure Date: 01/14/2004

I have a 1998 chevy K1500 pick-up this will be the second time it has gone to the garage for a rough shift, slippage during shift I have looked online and their are thousands of complaints for the same type of vehicle, second the door handles break very easy on this year of truck inside and outside. The bad part about that is for any reason you get out and the kids are in the truck and the door closes you aren't able to get back into the vehicle, chevy doesn't want to here anything about this because obviously it would probably cost thousands of dollars to fix.

3 Door Latch problem of the 2000 Chevrolet K1500

Failure Date: 09/01/1999

The rear doors will not latch if the vehicle is exposed to temps below 45 degrees, the front doors are secured to the rear doors, so if the rear latch won't latch the front doors may open, the dealer can not remedy the problem.
